the narcissist cookbook - white oak trees lyrics
[intro]
how’s it going?
just tuning up my guitar
eeh, it’s been a weird day
went out and hung up on some friends at the graveyard
i was stressed out, left, came home
remembered this old song, old song
eeeh, let’s give it a shot
[verse 1]
i’ve been waiting for this holiday to end
saving postcards for family and friends
sleeping hard not knowing when i’ll sleep again
[verse 2]
keeping secrets from everyone i meet
keeping time watching shadows walk the street
there’s only first names in the company i keep
[chorus]
but i had a dream last night it seems
i thought it had abandoned me
but here it comes again
and it was you, and me, and white oak trees
and no one else to hear a word we say
[post-chorus]
we’ve been, we’ve been
[verse 3]
we’ve been talking
two tin cans on a wire
but the reception leaves a lot to be desired
makes your voice sound like wet wood on a fire
[verse 4]
i will walk across this lonely nation’s sh-ll
it goes on forever, looping back upon itself
when i close my eyes i see you doing well
[chorus]
but i had a dream last night it seems
i thought it had abandoned me
but here it comes again
and it was you, and me, and white oak trees
and no one else to hear a word we say
god i hope we are still together when i wake
[post-chorus]
i’ve been, i’ve been, i’ve been
[verse 5]
now i’m waiting for this plane to take me home
somewhere distant
long forgotten
overgrown
i still remember how the old songs used to go
’cause i’ve been singing them to n0body you know
[verse 6]
soon the sun will bring me back into your world
blinking your eyes in the light
and smiling, oh my beautiful girl
i will be knocking at the entrance to your den
get your boots on
come on down
invite me in
[chorus]
’cause i had a dream last night it seems
but i thought it had abandoned me
but here it comes again
and it was you, and me, and white oak trees
and no one else to hear a word we say
and i hope we’ll be together
i hope we’ll be together
i hope we’ll be together when i wake
