My roommate is singing an old(?) folk song called "The Trees, They Grow So High." for her voice lessons and it turns out that none of us (including her teacher) know anything about the song at all. Any help? All we have to go on is the title. It's a sweet little song and once she gets back from class I'll type up the lyrics in case that helps. Thank you all! ~Amy~ |
