Mr Jones - He Won't Hear My Song Today Lyrics

The old oak tree is lying down
The leaves are blown away
Many times I talked to him
But he won't hear my song today

Sorrow and pain ran deep in your vein
Deep furrows were cut in your bark
T'was really hard not to go insane
But finally they ripped up your heart

The old oak tree is lying down
The leaves are blown away
Many times I talked to him
But he won't hear my song today

I often listened to your songs
They tell stories oh so sad
Stories of love of rights and wrongs
And of your heart being treated bad

The old oak tree is lying down
The leaves are blown away
Many times I talked to him
But he won't hear my song today

Solitude seemed to be your delight
They dug out your roots and ignored your ode
No matter if rain or the sun shining bright
They made you hit the hard road

The old oak tree is lying down
The leaves are blown away
Many times I talked to him
But he won't hear my song today

Lonesome though hundreds were there each day
You sat there and hated to hear them say
All the best for your future all the best for you now
When you want to go on but you do not know how

The old oak tree is lying down
The leaves are blown away
Many times I talked to him
But he won't hear my song today

Seems you could not find it here on earth
The one thing you've been looking for
I hope that you find your peace of mind
Hope that your key will unlock the last door

The old oak tree is lying down
The leaves are blown away
Many times I talked to him
But he won't hear my song today
