The old oak stood
When the country birthed
As generations rolled
Anchored deep in the earth
Ten feet around
It's bark tells a story
When girls and boys
Carved of love in full glory
Night times they gather
Ghosts from the past
Love through the years
Some not destined to last
They talk of old times
When they were young
Talk of the things
They wish they had done
Some folks can hear them
Some even can see
Murmuring low
They drift with the breeze
Some still are yearning
For love lost in the mist
Still linger there waiting
For just one last kiss
Wy created his awesome lyric during 50/90, I composed the piano track and recorded my rough vocals to send to Dawn. Dawn sang absolutely beautifully our song. Zuzanna created her stunning video. Thank you Wy, Dawn and Zuzanna for your great collaboration!
Thank you to everyone for watching, listening and commenting. Your support is very special to us.
Happy Autumn and Happy Halloween!
