Redwood Tree - Cam

Old redwood tree

Don’t you recognize me?

Know it’s not much time for you

But it’s been decades for me

Oh, Redwood tree

Sorry I had to leave

Eager mind and a teenage heart

Can get hooked on a dream

I saw the world

You saw my parents grow old

You’ve got your roots

And I’ve got the wind, the wind in my soul

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Don’t know what you have when you’re young

Ooh, ooh, ooh

But you’ll know what you had when it’s gone

You’ll know what you had

Old redwood tree

Now it’s just you and me

Back then it was hard to stay and easy to leave

In the soft summer breeze

It’s so simple to see

The time kept ticking back home

While I was living for me

I saw the world

You saw my parents grow old

You’ve got your roots

And I’ve got the wind, the wind in my soul

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Don’t know what you have when you’re young

Ooh, ooh, ooh

But you’ll know what you had when it’s gone

The only thing left of what used to be is you

The only thing left of what used to be is you

Old redwood tree

Don’t you recognize me?

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Don’t know what you have when you’re young

Ooh, ooh, ooh

But you’ll know what you had when it’s gone

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Don’t know what you have when you’re young

Ooh, ooh, ooh

But you’ll know what you had when it’s gone

You’ll know what you had
