Ben Howard - Old Pine lyrics

rate me

Oh hot sand on toes cold sand in sleeping bags.

I come to know that memories

Were the best things you ever had

The summer shorn be down on bone and backs

so far from home where the ocean stood down dust and pine cone tracks

We slept like dogs down by the fire side

I walked to the fall where all around us the boom of summer time is

We stood steady as the stars in the woods

So happy hearted in the warmth

Rang true inside these bones

As the old pine fell we sang

Just to bless the morning.

Oh hot sand on toes cold sand in sleeping bags.

I come to know the friends around you are all you'll always have

Smoke in my lungs oh the echoed stone careless and young, free as the birds that fly

With the weighless souls.

We stood steady as the stars in the woods

So happy hearted in the warmth

Rang true inside these bones

We stood steady as the stars in the woods

So happy hearted in the warmth

Rang true inside these bones

As the old pine fell we sang

Just to bless the morning.

We grow, grow, steady as the morning

We grow, grow, older still

We grow, grow, happy as a new dawn

We grow, grow, older still

We grow, grow, steady as the flowers

We grow, grow, older still

We grow, grow, happy as a new dawn

We grow, grow, older still
