Lyrics

There's two trees in becky hill's front yard
One big, and one small
That big oak's been there for ages
And they planted that willow last fall

He bought it for their anniversary
So they could watch it grow like their love
Well each day she looks out the window
To see it not growing that much

And she cries like that weeping willow
Every time the wind starts to blow
One of these days she's gonna be strong
Strong like the oak

Now she hates the thought of leaving
She hates to stay
But somewhere in her heart she still needs him
But not as much as she did yesterday

And she cries like that weeping willow
Every time the wind starts to blow
One of these days she's gonna be strong
Strong like the oak

She'll walk out that screen door and hold her hand high
Won't look back, won't shed a tear
Right now she's afraid of being alone
Oh, but she's been alone for years

She cries like that weeping willow
Every time the wind starts to blow
One of these days, she's gonna be strong
Strong like the oak

Yeah one of these days, she's gonna be strong
Strong as an oak
