Good Old War – Oak Tree lyrics

[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
