lyrics

Old Oak Standing (lyrics and music by Baum)

There's an old oak standing, it's a good old tree
He once crossed the rivers and the seven seas of love
When he tells the stories of his younger days
Oh, his bark gets wrinkly, engraves a smiling trace of love

And the leaves fall to the ground
And we all sing to the sound of love

In his backyard garden, standing fierce and tall
After all these seasons it's slowly getting fall, oh love!
May the winds be blowing, may the snowflakes come
We all are your children, and I am all your son of love

And the leaves fall to the ground
And we all sing to the sound of love
And the leaves fall into the sky
And we all sing with a sigh

We all have made mistakes, brought up the silly fakes
Oh carry us until your branches break, oh love!
These roots you have are real, no space left to conceal
You're young enough to make us feel, oh, love

And the leaves fall to the ground
And we all sing to the sound of love
And the leaves fall into the sky
And we all sing with a sigh for love
And the leaves fall to the ground
And we all sing to the sound of love
And the leaves fall into the sky
And we all sing with a sigh, oh love!
And the leaves fall to the sound of love
And we all sing to the ground

BAUM Switzerland

"Baum's intense and passionate performance was probably the best I witnessed at any gig for a long time. When I saw him live I actually felt privileged to be in the presence of someone with so much talent, so much passion, with songwriting of the highest quality. We really should be seeing this guy in the Olympia."
