He was the king of trees
Keeper of the leaves
A deep green God of young
Love stained memory
We used to meet by him
Far from the hustling town
I loved you
Now they've come to cut you down
..down
He was the guardian of days
We held the same
Beneath the shade he gave
Shelter from the rain
Oh lord how it's empty now
With nothing save the breeze
Now they've come to burn the leaves
Don't burn the leaves
And if my mind breaks up
In all so many ways
I know the meaning of
The words I love you
And if my body falls inside
An early grave
The forest and the evergreens
Are coming to take me back
So slowly as I roll
Down the track
The forest and the evergreens
Are coming to take me back
The forest and the evergreens
Are coming to take me back
Please take me back
He was the king of trees
Keeper of the glades
The way he enchanted my life
Makes me so amazed
We used to meet by him
Many years ago
I love you
Now they've come to lay the road
Don't lay the road
Cat Stevens, whose real name is Steven Demetre Georgiou, is a British singer-songwriter born in London on July 21, 1948. Active from the late 1960s until 1978, he then embraced Islam and changed his name to Yusuf Islam, continuing his musical career with a more spiritual approach. Stevens is known for his melancholic and introspective folk-rock melodies, often accompanied by poetic lyrics that explore themes of love, loss, faith, and spirituality. Among his most celebrated songs are "Wild World", "Father and Son" and "Peace Train". The album "Tea for the Tillerman" (1970) is considered a classic of British folk-rock. After his conversion period, Yusuf Islam continued to release music with more religious lyrics, but he has always maintained a refined and poetic musical sensibility.
