NEKO CASE
- Timber Lyrics / with translationsMy love was like a seed that you had planted
The root was not as strong as it could be
And as the years went on, you weren't enchanted
So you fell it like a great big tree
Now I'm falling timber
Timber the falling tree....
My heart was not a thing to take for granted
So loosen up your home and let me be
And if I had my way you would be planted
Drowning in the shade with me.
Now I'm calling timber...
Timber the falling tree-heeee.
The root was not as strong as it could be
And as the years went on, you weren't enchanted
So you fell it like a great big tree
Now I'm falling timber
Timber the falling tree....
So loosen up your home and let me be
And if I had my way you would be planted
Drowning in the shade with me.
Now I'm calling timber...
Timber the falling tree-heeee.
