The Handsome Family
To the Oaks
[Verse 1]
Your shiny phone will never know
No electric eye can ever show
The flashes in the branches
The whisper in the oaks
[Refrain]
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na, na, na
A whisper in the oaks
[Verse 2]
Tonight at dusk, drive off the road
Run from the lights down through the oaks
No shopping bags, no passwords
Down in the shady grove
[Refrain]
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Down in the shady grove
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na, na, na
A whisper in the oaks
[Verse 3]
Phantoms fly the forest
Twist the dripping ferns
Spirits in the shadows
In root and dirt and bone
[Refrain]
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Root and dirt and bone
[Verse 4]
Wake up, father black bear
Scream, old mother crow
Whisper through the forest
Wake the world below
[Refrain]
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Wake the world below
