Lyrics for Marriage Tree
Like an old man in a dress Treat me like a 12 year old man No more hearts Don't know what 20 is Don't know where the tree stands Only follow these hands At midnight I reach for the blind Toward your head, but don't touch it I'll wish I had but when I'm dead At midnight I hit your song It sings again Don't know what age is Don't know where the tree stands I only follow these hands I couldn't make you crazy if I tried We've been swinging 'round the tree For how long now? Maybe she wants to be cared for Stay home a month here A month there Maybe take to the open roads Maybe take to the open roads Maybe take to the open roads At the marriage tree
