Tree Bones [Threadbare version] Lyrics by Port O’Brien

Threadbare

0

Dressed up with my sister
I was a bat and she was a fly
Now we're a little bigger
Still we have to cry

Pines by the sea, my namesake
Soon will rot away
Watch the beetles eat bark
On another day

Our mama will no longer be
On this land by the sea
I push away, I beg and plea
You will no longer come with me

Our mama will no longer be
On this land by the sea
I push away, I beg and plea
You will no longer come with me

Tree bones will die alone
And our bones will find a home

Tree bones will die alone
And our bones will find a home

Tree bones will die alone
And our bones will find a home

Tree bones will die alone
And our bones will find a home

He still flutters on with me
He still flutters on with me
You still flutter on with me
