A Tree in the Park lyrics

When the noisy town lets its windows down

Little slaves are free at night.

Then we'll soon retreat from the busy street

Where the crowds are out of sight.

There's a rendezvous for lovers

Where we two can play,

Very near your door, in the city's core

But it seems a million miles away:

Meet me underneath that little tree in the park

No one else around but you and me in the dark

Just five minutes from your doorstep

I'll wait for your step to come along

And the city's roar becomes a song.

While I'm waiting I discover more in your charms

Suddenly I turn around and you're in my arms

And if there's a moon above you

I'll carve 'I Love You' upon the bark

Underneath that little tree inside the park.
