I took my troubles to the tree

Hoping I could find m way to peace

I didn't know where my life would lead

So I took my troubles to the tree

I told my story to the breeze

When no one seemed to listen to me

And like the breeze I now am free

Since I told my story to the breeze

Well, I laid me down in the sun

It's warmth and I became one

And I missed the sun when the day was done

He was such a friend to me the sun

Oh yeah—

This world can't give me any peace

It seems that love will never really be

And my troubled mind must find release

So I sat me down beneath the tree

Well, I laid me down in the sun

It's warmth and I became as one

And I missed the sun when the day was done

He was such a friend to me the sun-

Oh yeah—

I took my troubles to the tree

And God's own son looked down on me

All I know is I was blind and now I see

Since I took my troubles to the tree

And I believe we all can find the way to peace

If we take our troubles to the tree
