The Giving Tree (爱心树) - Bobby Bare
Once there was a giving tree who loved a little boy

And every day the boy would come to play

Swinging from her branches sleeping in her shade

Laughing all the summer hours away

And so they'd love and oh the tree was happy

Oh the tree was glad

But soon the boy grew older

And one day he came to say

Can you give me some money
Tree to buy some things I found

I have no money said the tree

Just apples twigs and leaves

But you can take my apples boy

And sell them in the town

And so he did and oh the tree was happy

Oh the tree was glad

And soon again the boy came back
And he said to the tree

I'm now a man and I must
Have a house that's all my own

I can't give you a house she said

The forest is my house

But you may cut my branches off
And build yourself a home

And so he did and oh the tree was happy

Oh the tree was glad

And the time went by and the boy came back
With sadness in his eyes

My life has turned so cold he said

And I need sunny days

I've nothin' but my trunk she said

But you may cut it down

And built yourself a boat and sail away

And so he did and oh the tree was happy

Oh the tree was glad

And after years the boy came back both of them were old

I really cannot help ye if you ask another gift

I'm nothin' but an old stump now

I'm sorry boy she said

I'm sorry but I've nothin' more to give

I don't need very much now just a quiet place to rest

The boy he'd whispered with a weary smile

Well said the tree an old stump still is good for that

Come boy she said sit down sit down and rest awhile

And so he did and oh the tree was happy

Oh the tree was glad
