The storms make trees take deeper roots and I'll be there soon
but all of this makes me feel so confused
cause I've been hurt before, I've been used
that's why my walls are higher than you were when you last called
but I don't think I can fault you at all
cause remember that boy you picked up from the floor
he never wanted all his my demons
and always question all the reasons
why they insist on coming back to haunt him now
the family tree
wasn't so kind to me
and it's beginning to bring me down
(bring me down)
but you'll never know
how grateful I was
to know that you'd always be around
Remember that you said that it made your heart happy
but you should know that that's how it should be
cos in all honesty you mean a lot to me
the family tree
wasn't so kind to me
and it's beginning to bring me down
(bring me down)
but you'll never know
how grateful I was
to know that you'd always be around
but i don't know how long I can go on this way
staring blankly at a screen every day
if I could id pack my bags and I'd just fly away
sometimes I wonder if we shall ever even meet
whilst I soldier on through the December sleet
my heart it lies in Iowa, I promise you, I'm sure
the family tree
wasn't so kind to me
and it's beginning to bring me down
(bring me down)
but you'll never know
how grateful I was
to know that you'd always be around
