Cântăre My tree

On a hill far away stands a tall mighty tree

Where a boy and girl used to take turns pushing the tire swing

I remember the pocketknife in hand

And her name in my heart

And thinkin' there ain't no way for a boy to contain

The love that he feels inside

So I carved her name into my tree

Then I carved a heart around her name

Then I carved an arrow through the heart

Just to say "I love you"



Now on a hill far away stood an old rugged cross

The emblem of suffering and shame

I remember the nails through my hands

And your name in my heart

And how in their wordless way the nails explain

The love that I feel inside

As they carved your name into my tree

Where I wrapped my heart around your name

Then I took your arrow through my heart

Just to say, "I love you"

Just to say, "I love you"



Now I can never forget how much you mean to me

'Cause I will always remember whenever I see



Where I carved your name into my tree

Where I wrapped my heart around your name

Then I took your arrow through my heart

Just to say, "I love you"

Just to say, "I love you"
