[00:15-00:18] The same day I first came into this world,
[00:18-00:22] In the deep, dark woods, a pine cone took root.
[00:22-00:26] From then, I knew we’d be together.
[00:26-00:29] Cuz you and I, no doubt we’re bound to be forever.
[00:29-00:32] I glimpsed you hiding ‘midst the grove of trees,
[00:32-00:36] But still despite it all I found you with ease.
[00:36-00:39] No one around, you never made a sound
[00:39-00:43] Heard you calling me. Oh, what more could I ask for?

[00:50-00:59] The years fly by and I’ve become a teen
[00:59-01:02] But you are just like me, we’re wild evergreens.
[01:04-01:08] Right from the start, we’ve shared our very lives.
[01:08-01:15] With every year survived, we’ll do much more than thrive.
[01:15-01:20] There grows a pine! [x2]
[01:22-01:23] And so do I!
[01:26-01:27] This bond’s for life!
[01:29-01:30] Our roots entwined!

[01:31-01:34] Fast forward, sixteen whole years have lapsed
[01:34-01:37] I go for tramps, picking up your scraps
[01:38-01:40] One night, I messed up, why’d I do that?
[01:40-01:44] We’d had too much to drink, got too sloppy, and things went way too far
[01:44-01:48] Now look, I’m a papa with a silver band
[01:48-01:51] But no, nothing can come between what we had
[01:51-01:54] I brought the kids to come and meet you
[01:54-01:58] Can’t believe my fuckin’ eyes! HOLY SHIT! YOU HAVE KIDS TOO, DUDE!

[02:06-02:10] The years go on and now I’m middle-aged.
[02:10-02:17] Didn’t think I’d reach this stage, but you and I still rave.
[02:19-02:24] Right from the start, we’ve shared our very lives.
[02:24-02:30] With every year on earth, we'll realize our worth.
[02:31-02:35] There grows a pine! [x2]
[02:38-02:39] And so do I!
[02:41-02:42] This bond’s for life!
[02:44-02:45] Our roots entwined!

[03:00-03:07] Glam will come up with something here, something like *guitar noises*…

[03:20-03:26] The years slip by and now I’m old and gray.
[03:26-03:33] But everything’s okay, cuz what we have won’t change.
[03:34-03:40] Right from the start, we’ve shared our very lives.
[03:40-03:47] Though they may look the same, while yours shines, mine’s of shame.
[03:48-03:53] The years march on, and now we’re dead and gone.
[03:54-04:01] A bandit killed me cold, and someone cut you down.
[04:02-04:07] From your remains he carved one hell of a guitar.
[04:08-04:13] And where I used to lay, he wrote a song that day...
[04:14-04:15] A song that plays...
[04:17-04:24] There grows a pine! [x3]
