Cut me down a tree
And brought it back to me
And that's what made me see
Where I was going

You put me on a shelf
And kept me for yourself
I can only blame myself
You can only blame me

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me

And I could write it down
And spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
Or swalloved in the sea

You put me on a line
And homely out to dry
Darling, that's when i
Decided to go see

You cut me down to size
And opened up my eyes
Made my realize
What I could not see

And I could write a book
The one you'll say that shook
The world and then it took
It took it back from me

And I could write it down
And spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
And you'll come back to me
Not swalloved in the sea

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me

The streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with me

Oh, what good is it to live
With nothing left to give
Forget, but not forgive
Not loving all you see

All the streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well, that's where I belong
And you belong with me

Not swalloved in the sea
You belong with me
Not swalloved in the sea
Yeah, you belong with me
Not swalloved in the sea
