Glistening Bed came into existence in the tranquil corners of a small town in Vermont during the crisp winter of 2011. The band’s creation was a serendipitous encounter of four music-loving college friends, each hailing from different musical backgrounds. Their shared love for harmonious melodies and poetic lyrics led them to form a band that would later become known as Glistening Bed. Inspired by their deep-rooted emotions, their lyrical journey is encapsulated in the music they produce, creating a unique soundscape that resonates with their listeners.

Title:

“Underneath the Willow Tree”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1 – Em, D, G, C)

(Em) Underneath the Willow Tree, (D) where our love used to be
(G) We laughed, we cried, (C) under the open sky
(Em) Whispered secrets in the wind, (D) promises not to rescind
(G) Now all I have are (C) memories that never die

(Chorus – G, D, Em, C)

(G) Underneath the Willow Tree, (D) is where I feel you close to me
(Em) The rustling leaves sing (C) our forgotten melody
(G) As the sun sets, painting the sky, (D) I remember your goodbye
(Em) But here, underneath the Willow Tree, (C) I still feel you with me

(Verse 2 – Em, D, G, C)

(Em) Seasons have changed, (D) and so have we
(G) Yet, the Willow Tree (C) remains, a testament to our history
(Em) The carved initials, (D) a symbol of our story
(G) Though you are gone, (C) your essence still lingers in its glory

(repeat Chorus – G, D, Em, C)

(G) Underneath the Willow Tree, (D) is where I feel you close to me
(Em) The rustling leaves sing (C) our forgotten melody
(G) As the moon shines, whispering to the night, (D) I remember your soft light
(Em) But here, underneath the Willow Tree, (C) I still feel you with me
