I am a tree

I'm standing here all alone
watching everything going by
the pink car without it's top
the kids running away
the leaves falling once day
the petals blowing away
I am a tree here all alone
I am done growing
I am tall and strong
you think I don't know a thing
but I see everything
passing in front of me
I am a tree till the end
I will last a long after you
and I see every year
that nothing really changes
you are who you are
no matter how hard you try
to be someone else
you will always go back
to being yourself
I am standing here all alone
but never feeling sad
I feel a part of this world
all the good and the bad
I am a tree who loves
I deserve your respect
take your dogs away from me
I don't like the smell of pee
I am a tree forever
I will last for you and you
I am a tree look at me
or walk on by and leave me be
but I will see you
I will see you
you can't get away from me
