lyrics

TWO LOST TIMBERS

Is it you sweet cedar I cant see through the fog
We’re just two lost timbers who wont ever be logs
Brush my branches as soft as dew falls
We’re just two lost timbers on our way to be logs

Hey there honey with your branches so green,
you’re all lit up like a yule tide dream
Get spruced up and we can go downtown
And run around in circles till they chop us down

Lets wander the streets we got some time to kill
When the humans walk by we just stand real still
We can place some bets on who’ll go first
on who gets cut or who gets burned

~~
 
It’s hard to miss that twinkle and the way you shine
No I’m not talking about the ornaments and lights
Even from all the way across the street
I can see the brilliant tree you’re meant to be

Get spruced up and we can go downtown
We can pretend we just met in the hotel lounge
And I’ll dance you in circles till you snap a twig
We’ll go up in flames like our parents did

The time is now cedar cant you see
Life is short for a Christmas tree
One day your a sapling reaching towards the sun
Then they cover you and light and then you’re done

~~

Is it you sweet cedar I cant see through the fog
We’re just two lost timbers who wont ever be logs
Brush my branches as soft as dew falls
We’re just two lost timbers on our way to be logs
