Testo di The Oak Tree

Kicking dust up I'm wearing out my shoes I can't make my mind up I've got too much to lose I'm old enough To leave home But way too young To know what I should do I'm treading water I'm trying to keep My head above the ground So would you come with me Up to the oak tree? Time will stop for us again Look back, remember when Yeah, we were just eighteen Under the oak tree Safer than we'd ever been Hold on to innocence Where has the time gone? I'm feeling old and gray Trying to breathe revival Into my broken ways I'm old enough To leave home But way too young To carry all the blame I'm treading water I'm trying to keep My head above the ground So would you come with me Up to the oak tree? Time will stop for us again Look back, remember when Yeah, we were just eighteen Under the oak tree Safer than we'd ever been Hold on to innocence We were young Oh, we were young And we had time How I hate The feeling that time It keeps slipping away The child in me is kicking Don't let a moment pass 'Cause I can't bear to witness My parents age so fast They're way too young To fly home And I can't stand To watch the hourglass I'm treading water I'm trying to keep My head above the ground I'm treading water I'm trying to keep Time from running out So would you come with me Up to the oak tree? Time will stop for us again Look back, remember when Yeah, we were just eighteen Under the oak tree Safer than we'd ever been Hold on to innocence We were young Oh, we were young And we had time Oh, to be young Oh, to be young And to have time
