Song: Ordinary Tree

[autographedcat]

Today is the day we do horrible things to cadhla's masterpiece. As if what braider did to it wasn't enough, kitanzi got my head wrapped around this possibility, and I couldn't resist:

Ordinary Tree
TTTO: "Ordinary Day" by Great Big Sea
Inspired by "Sycamore Tree" by Seanan McGuire

Saw your name on the tree, your initials surround mine
I wonder who carved them there for me to find, oh-oh.
It's a lie, but it's also a fact
I love you, but I can't come back
'Cause I must fly...

And I say....Way-hey-hey, I've just got to fly away
And you're not going to call me home
And the end of the day, I know I must fly on my own

I did all that I could to keep you from dying
And you'll never know why I can't keep from crying
But you fit in this small town world
And I can't be a small town girl
No, I must fly...

Way-hey-hey, I've just got to fly away
And you're not going to call me home
And the end of the day, I know I must fly on my own

We each paid our dues and we each played our parts
But there's no second chances, there's no second starts, oh no
And you're not coming back through my door
But I know now who this song is for
And I must fly...

Way-hey-hey, I've just got to fly away
And you're not going to call me home
And the end of the day, I know I must fly on my own

Saw your name on the tree, your initials surround mine....

Possibly so, but can you think of a more fitting tribute for Cadhla than to have shambling, horrific zombies mumbling her lyrics incessantly? This may be "earworm" taken slightly too literally....

Not so much, no :) Which just means you -and- Rob both win today. Congratulations!
