the cherry tree Katz

you were the axe for the cherry log
  cut fresh where you lie
    woodchips on your sweater boy
       yea, you can still deny
city so wide, couldn't you find
  someone else to walk beside
    I didn't know, took you to show
       she's still deep in me

one will mourn an ending 
     while two don't feel so alone
three can stop pretending 
     there's nothing wrong
     
I believe in chivalry     I believe in lust
  I believe in flings without strings and 
    I believe in trust
city so wide, couldn't you find
  someone else to get inside
    there in my home, she came alone
       would you walk her home for me
       
one will mourn an ending 
     while two don't feel so alone
three can stop pretending 
     there's nothing wrong
     
and I don't know why it stings
     never been too good at these things
          but it is what it is
