words and music by Micah Fickett
 I sing beneath the tree that is no more
Sitting in its nonexistent shade
There was the day you climbed up high
Then reached out wide to hug the big blue sky
Why can’t I escape to the past?
To times when love was meant to last
To times when the tree was in full bloom
Before you said the two of us were through
I soak my feet in the empty riverbed
I miss the song the stream used to sing
I look back on the time I pushed you in
Your words were angry; your face was one big grin
My friends they say I need to let it go
My head agrees; my heart screams no, no, no
Everyday this world speaks of you
Every flower leaves me feeling blue
