[00:00.56]Oak Tree - Kitchens of Distinction
[00:24.87]Under an old oak tree
[00:30.04]I found his young body
[00:34.92]
[00:35.56]Took him and his heart inside
[00:40.84]Promised him as my bride
[00:45.93]We were happily tethered
[00:49.29]
[00:51.10]So happily tethered
[00:54.71]
[00:57.72]Then we lived out our dream
[01:02.37]Under these oak and elm beams
[01:07.17]
[01:07.68]Gathered our fresh bounty
[01:13.00]From the garden's rich authority
[01:18.38]That we had sown
[01:21.50]
[01:23.67]We bloomed and we splendour'd
[01:27.20]
[01:28.99]We gathered seeds and ploughed on
[01:32.94]
[01:34.42]We bloomed and we splendour'd
[01:37.88]
[01:39.57]We planted seeds and ploughed on
[01:43.76]
[01:45.06]We bloomed and we splendour'd
[01:48.91]
[01:50.30]We gathered our fruits
[01:51.59]and soldiered on
[01:55.58]
[01:57.01]In our bed of deep mahogany
[02:01.46]We fucked about,
[02:03.51]
[02:04.06]kissing and sodomy
[02:07.06]Engraved our stains
[02:09.67]on the headboard
[02:12.13]Skirted around moments
[02:15.86]of cruelty
[02:17.69]Under these pale holly leaves
[02:22.88]I cared for his stale body
[02:28.20]Suddenly organs were failing
[02:33.82]I bought salves, grapes,
[02:37.49]And mostly, I suppose, I stayed
[02:41.99]
[02:44.24]I did not leave in pursuit
[02:46.83]of easier living
[02:49.27]
[02:49.96]I stuck through it
[02:52.55]
[02:54.76]In dumb hope
[02:55.66]and in blind determination
[02:59.57]
[03:00.64]We stuck through it
[03:03.40]
[03:05.49]Despite the removal of hope
[03:08.17]Despite the worsening
[03:10.51]
[03:11.45]We stuck through it
[03:14.09]
[03:16.12]Despite the darkening sun
[03:18.73]
[03:19.42]The loss of the moon
[03:21.31]
[03:21.95]We stuck through it
[03:26.72]
[04:11.14]Under an old apple tree
[04:15.21]
[04:15.79]I scattered his dead body
[04:20.62]
[04:21.14]To feed the orchard again
[04:25.76]
[04:26.41]A rich source of calcium
[04:31.57]
[04:32.40]And my hurt tears
[04:36.00]
