Holly Oak Lyrics

a holly oak tree is shading me
planted by a passerby tossing acorn seeds
until one takes hold and grows to be
a shade of love inside a memory of
you and me and that holly oak tree
when we were young
we could not afford fancy things
so we would swing and one day
we carved our names
forever eternity
but as our hearts
and names distort
as the oak grows to be
a shade of love inside a memory of
you and me and that holly oak tree
a shade of love inside a memory of
you and me and that holly oak tree
I will be home soon enough
nature will make sure of that
even if I forget about her love song
I'm gently tapped on the back
a holly oak tree is shading me
planted by a passerby tossing acorn seeds
until one takes hold and grows to be
a shade of love inside a memory of
you and me and that holly oak tree
a shade of love inside a memory of
you and me and that holly oak tree
a shade of love inside a memory of
you and me and that holly oak tree
