Good Old War Oak Tree Lyrics
Oak Tree by Good Old War
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Verse]
Where is your love now
I won't let you fool me
I know I've seen it hangin' around
But it's been missing since the evening
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Verse]
I can see it in those sad eyes
You think no one's understanding
Outside all you hear are lies, lies, lies
Inside you're suffering
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Interlude]
Laa laa, la la laa laaa!
La la laa la la laa laa laa laa!
Laa laa, la la laa laaa!
La la laa la la laa laa laa laa!
[Verse]
None of us can stop time
But we like to keep it steady
So when the time comes to say goodbye
We are ready!
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Post-Chorus]
Or anywhere you wanna be
As long as it's with me
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Verse]
Where is your love now
I won't let you fool me
I know I've seen it hangin' around
But it's been missing since the evening
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Verse]
I can see it in those sad eyes
You think no one's understanding
Outside all you hear are lies, lies, lies
Inside you're suffering
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Interlude]
Laa laa, la la laa laaa!
La la laa la la laa laa laa laa!
Laa laa, la la laa laaa!
La la laa la la laa laa laa laa!
[Verse]
None of us can stop time
But we like to keep it steady
So when the time comes to say goodbye
We are ready!
[Chorus]
Don't you want me by your side?
Won't you meet me by the old oak tree?
In the shade beneath the leaves
Before they fall like you and me
[Post-Chorus]
Or anywhere you wanna be
As long as it's with me
