Timber Lyrics by Neko Case

The Virginian

1997

[Verse 1]
My love was like a seed that you had planted
It grew as fine and strong as it could be
But as the years went on, you weren't enchanted
So you fell it like a great big tree

[Chorus]
Now I'm calling timber, timber
Timber, timber, the falling tree

[Verse 2]
My heart was not a thing to take for granted
So loosen up your hold and let me be
And if I had my way, you would be planted
Drowning in the shade of me

[Chorus]
Now I'm calling timber, timber
Timber, timber, the falling tree
Now I'm saying timber
Timber, the falling tree

[Verse 1]
My love was like a seed that you had planted
It grew as fine and strong as it could be
But as the years went on, you weren't enchanted
So you fell it like a great big tree

[Chorus]
Now, I'm calling timber, timber
Timber, timber, the falling tree
Now I'm saying timber
Timber, the falling tree

[Refrain]
Timber, timber, the falling tree
