Shake Our Tree Lyrics

That bird's ready I know

He's tired of being alone

He's working all on his own

Building himself a home



And take that finch when he sings

See his mate by his wings

And if you listen close

You may even hear him say



Will our love ever end (woah no)

Will you stop being my best friend (woah no)

Will you sleep as worse as me (woah no)

Singing a story of love in the leaves



(oo-oo-o-oo)

Before the winter takes hold

And the figs are dry and cold

The birds are meetin' in the tree

And confess love's what they need

Perform love on their limbs

And sing one of love's true hyms

And if you listen close

You can even hear them say



Are you ever gonna treat me right (woah no)

Are you ever gonna hold me down (woah no)

Will you get tired holding me tight (woah no)

Looks like the story of love grows, alright



Will our love ever end (woah no)

Will you let me shake our tree (woah no)

Will you stop being my best friend (woah no)

Looks like the story of love never ends
