She lived in an owl tree,

  The bark hollow, the wood rotted

  She lived in an owl tree,

  The bird forever hooted

  The girl and i, her face so pretty

  The girl and i, so short, so soft

  We’d meet below the owl tree

  So long, long ago.

  We no longer meet by the owl tree,

  That owl girl and i

  We haven’t met there for a decade at least,

  That owl girl and i

  We no longer walk, or talk ‘bout the deepest thoughts

  That girl who lived in an old owl tree
