Carbon Leaf

Carbon Leaf - Block of Wood lyrics

rate me

Grab your heart we need to leave

There's no time to cry or grieve

For the fallen family tree.

Rise above the flooding plain

Crouching low to duck the flame

Generations against the grain

Up in smoke and down the drain

If the fire, if the flood

Burns the tree and thins the blood

If your tears don't want to dry

I can help you cry

Through the night

Through the night and day

I can't take your pain away

But I can help you cry

We'll cut the branch from this tree

Carve a place for you and me

A wooden seat that we can string

From a branch where we can swing

We'll take this block of wood

Carve it down and sand it good

When finished it will be

A souvenir of the family tree

And if the fire, if the flood

Burns the tree and thins the blood

If your tears don't wanna dry

I can help you cry

Through the night

Through the night and day

I can't take your pain away

But I can help you cry

Through the night

Through the night and day

I can't take your pain away

I can try but

God help me please

Come save the family tree

My friends I broke them all

When falling off the wall

In the ash I found an ember

Something warm to help remember

A block of wood that used to be

A strong tall family tree

A strong tall family tree

Blowing in the breeze

Cry through the night

Through the night and day

I can't take your pain away

But I can help you cry

Through the night

Through the night and day

I can't take your pain away

But I can help you cry
