[00:00.00]The Oak Tree - Emily Hearn
[00:05.25]Kicking dust up I'm wearing out my shoes
[00:10.02]
[00:11.34]I can't make my mind up I've got too much to lose
[00:16.26]
[00:16.87]I'm old enough to leave home
[00:19.38]
[00:20.27]But way too young to know what I should do
[00:23.38]
[00:25.97]I'm treading water
[00:28.99]I'm trying to keep my head above the ground
[00:32.76]
[00:38.10]So would you come with me up to the oak tree
[00:41.46]
[00:43.07]Time will stop for us again
[00:44.93]
[00:46.12]Look back remember when
[00:47.59]
[00:50.30]Yeah we were just eighteen under the oak tree
[00:53.64]
[00:55.22]Safer than we'd ever been
[00:56.70]
[00:58.28]Hold on to innocence
[01:00.26]
[01:03.02]Where has the time gone I'm feeling old and gray
[01:07.57]
[01:09.04]Trying to breathe revival into my broken ways
[01:14.64]I'm old enough to leave home
[01:17.27]
[01:18.00]But way too young to carry all the blame
[01:21.26]
[01:23.77]I'm treading water
[01:26.04]
[01:26.74]I'm trying to keep my head above the ground
[01:30.19]
[01:35.84]So would you come with me up to the oak tree
[01:39.33]
[01:40.79]Time will stop for us again

[01:59.92]We were young oh we were young
[02:04.37]
[02:05.72]And we had time
[02:07.40]
[02:12.13]How I hate the feeling that time
[02:20.10]
[02:21.06]It keeps slipping away
[02:26.96]
[02:31.04]The child in me is kicking don't let a moment pass
[02:35.92]
[02:36.93]'Cause I can't bear to witness my parents age so fast
[02:42.13]
[02:42.65]They're way too young to fly home
[02:45.21]
[02:45.93]And I can't stand to watch the hourglass
[02:49.53]
[02:51.77]I'm treading water
[02:54.30]
[02:54.82]I'm trying to keep my head above the ground
[02:58.70]
[03:00.84]I'm treading water
[03:03.23]
[03:03.92]I'm trying to keep time from running out
[03:07.60]
[03:13.09]So would you come with me up to the oak tree
