Song Description

Relating traveling days to current life while looking out the back window. Overcoming loneliness with joyous outlook.

Lyrics

Bottlebrush Tree

A cold snap dropped in for the evening

I offered up a pot of ginger peach tea

Baked a banana bread inside the oven

To sweeten my sad taste of lonely

I once had a man who read me poetry

I once had a man who wrote me songs

I once had a man who brought me to my knees

And more than one who did me wrong

I took to the road

Like some girls take a lover

I took to the South to flee the cold

Loyalty to the road just kept me moving

And allowed my future to unfold

It brought me the man who read me poetry

It brought me the man who wrote me songs

It brought me the man who brought me to my knees

And more than one who did me wrong

My window looks out on a bottlebrush tree

That blew over four times with the storms

The roots spread wide 'cross the cap rock

Adapting function to twisted form, to twisted form, to twisted form

Bring me a man who reads me poetry

Bring me a man who writes me songs

Bring me a man whose love is pure and sweet

Bring me a man whose love is strong

The sky is clear and the stars are bright

I wouldn't mind a little bit of love tonight

To cover me a like a quilt of down

Warmth and comfort to just wrap around

Bring me a man who reads me poetry

Bring me a man who writes me songs

Bring me a man whose love is pure and sweet

Bring me a man whose love is strong

Bring me man who reads me poetry

Bring me a man who writes me songs

Bring me man I can love pure and sweet

Who's not afraid of a woman who's too strong
