Oak Tree

I know you're leaving, but I'm still writing this song
We've known each other for way too long to not say goodbye
As you're fading away, no one knows how bad I want you to stay with me
So I'll hop in that old Ford and put it in drive, and wait for you to come back to my side

Ain't that good at fixing trucks, I ain't rich, and hell, I'm even bad luck
I can see why you don't stay with me, besides the fact that I love you stronger than that old oak tree
All those nights that we spent together, running around with some bent-up fenders
made me think that maybe you and me were in forever with the shine next to your pinky

Now that you're gone, I've been moving on. I haven't heard about you in way too long
But if you ever have a thought about me, pick up that phone, girl, you know just where I'll be
And I'll hop in that old Ford and put it in drive, and keep on driving till you're by my side
I still ain't good at fixing trucks. I still ain't rich, maybe a little less bad luck

I'll be praying that you stay with me till we're gone. I love you stronger than that old oak tree
It's been a few years, we have a house of four. No way on earth I could ask for more
And I hope someday these kids will see that we'll always love them stronger than that old oak tree
