Timber, Nails and Tears Songtext
von Barna Howard

How can I forget your mother′s face
And the time it took to settle down
As she stood there and disbelieve
All after all I was bound
I've sent you kisses across the water
For I′d go mad if love one true
It's hard to find someone to talk to
Cause over that's what the weapon do
I won′t send you timber nails and tears
Cause honey, that kind of thing ain′t for you


I hope you're still running round the yard
Picking red roses in the sun
I know for you it′s so damn hard
To catch the breathe you'd never thought it′d run
The spring time and noise on the move
Oh how I miss that old cherry tree
Tell me all the white blossoms have bloomed
Cause over here that's one thing you never see
I won′t send you timber nails and tears
Cause honey, that kind of thing ain't what you need.
