The Oak Tree - Emily Hearn

[00:05.63]Kicking dust up, I'm wearing out my shoes
[00:11.19]I can't make my mind up
[00:13.67]I've got too much to lose
[00:16.82]I'm old enough to leave home
[00:20.05]But way too young to know what I should do
[00:25.83]I'm treading water
[00:28.71]I'm trying to keep my head above the ground
[00:37.89]So would you come with me up to the oak tree?
[00:42.98]Time will stop for us again
[00:45.96]Look back, remember when
[00:50.05]Yeah, we were just eighteen, under the oak tree
[00:55.04]Safer than we'd ever been
[00:58.06]Hold on to innocence
[01:03.05]Where has the time gone? I'm feeling old and gray
[01:09.01]Trying to breathe revival into my broken ways
[01:14.58]I'm old enough to leave home
[01:17.97]But way too young to carry all the blame
[01:23.59]I'm treading water
[01:26.57]I'm trying to keep my head above the ground
[01:35.67]So would you come with me up to the oak tree?
[01:40.53]Time will stop for us again
[01:43.66]Look back, remember when
[01:47.76]Yeah, we were just eighteen, under the oak tree
[01:52.59]Safer than we'd ever been
[01:55.65]Hold on to innocence
[01:59.64]We were young, oh, we were young
[02:05.07]And we had time
[02:11.80]How I hate the feeling that time
[02:20.97]It keeps slipping away
[02:30.89]The child in me is kicking; don't let a moment pass
[02:36.44]'Cause I can't bear to witness my parents age so fast
[02:42.11]They're way too young to fly home
[02:45.52]And I can't stand to watch the hourglass
[02:51.23]I'm treading water
[02:54.20]I'm trying to keep my head above the ground
[03:00.20]I'm treading water
[03:03.39]I'm trying to keep time from running out
[03:12.47]So would you come with me up to the oak tree?
[03:17.27]Time will stop for us again
[03:20.36]Look back, remember when
[03:24.54]Yeah, we were just eighteen, under the oak tree
[03:29.38]Safer than we'd ever been
[03:32.52]Hold on to innocence
[03:36.40]We were young, oh, we were young
[03:41.93]And we had time
[03:48.47]Oh,to be young, oh, to be young
[03:54.04]And to have time
