[00:00.00]Prettiest Tree on the Mountain - Ben Sollee
[00:00.55]Well a robin flew by my window
[00:04.41]
[00:06.08]I thought it just might be you
[00:09.13]
[00:10.88]Judging from the color of its breast
[00:12.91]
[00:13.74]And the sound of its song
[00:15.83]
[00:16.65]But I'm just thinking of you
[00:19.67]
[00:21.93]Cause you're in sunny California
[00:25.81]
[00:27.74]The fertile land John Steinbeck wrote
[00:30.57]
[00:32.12]When I came not a single fertile patch
[00:37.45]Could be spared for you and me
[00:41.09]
[00:42.73]You see I wanted to love you baby
[00:46.59]
[00:48.49]Like neither you nor I'd been loved before
[00:51.89]
[00:53.37]I thought I could change the world
[00:55.80]If I just held you high enough
[00:58.59]
[00:59.13]Truth is I couldn't hold you up at all
[01:02.53]
[01:04.42]I couldn't hold you up
[01:08.03]
[01:09.70]I couldn't hold you up
[01:13.65]
[01:17.66]And I sure ain't gonna hold you down
[01:21.19]
[01:44.13]Well I'm leaving walking back home
[01:48.19]
[01:49.75]I don't care if it takes years or more
[01:53.21]
[01:54.70]But as I walk through the hills of Kentucky
[01:59.37]
[02:00.65]The leaves begin to turn red
[02:03.64]
[02:05.66]And I think of you
[02:09.23]
[02:11.02]Yes I think of you
[02:14.87]
[02:19.52]The prettiest tree on the mountain
