If This Tree Could Talk Songtext
von Todd Burge

If this tree could talk, he would cuss at us
For carving our names in his bark
Happy were we as we cut that old tree
But to him it was way too sappy
Our carving outlasted our love I guess
The sap stopped a sad sticky mess
Now you belong to him
As I belong to you
And this tree
Should be telling me some truth
My pocket full of posies


Is imposing on you
As I wring my final thoughts around the rosie
You belong to him as I belong to you
And this tree should be telling me some truth
This old tree will live rings
Around our lives, I guess
And as most kids post their love on someone′s wall
I'll walk up here each fall
And I′ll talk to the tree
With the scars of the love of you and me
With the scars of the love of you and me
