Break a Branch Lyrics by Chris Miller (Composer), Nathan Tysen, Barrett Wilbert Weed, Studio Cast of Fugitive Songs

Fugitive Songs: A Song Cycle (Studio Cast Recording)

2012

Break a branch
From a tall oak tree
Walk that stick
′Til the bark comes free
Devil on my shoulder sayin' time to go
Hard to stay home with the walk sweet talkin′
Three strong limbs
Are all I need
Legs pursue
The branch will lead
Standin' like a statue almost eighteen years
Walls are closin' in but the walk′s sweet talkin′
Time's a thing (time′s a thing)
There's no need for (there′s no need for)
Lock your watch (lock your watch)
In the dresser drawer (in the dresser drawer)
Spring, summer, never mind who's to say?
You forget the day with the walk sweet talkin′
Got myself a theory (got myself a theory)
Slowly but surely (slowly but surely)
We curve to match the surface of the earth
Every step your toes bend
Every day your feet bow
Curve to match the surface of the earth
Look you made a footprint (Look you made a footprint)
Where no one else has landed
First to tell the story of the earth
Break a branch (break a branch)
From a tall oak tree
Walk that stick (walk that stick)
'Til the bark comes free
Devil on my shoulder sayin' time to go
Hard to stay home with the walk sweet talkin′
The walk sweet talkin′
