Paul Hunt and Evan Haines - Pine Tree State of Mind (Moody Mix)

If you like trees, well we have plenty
There's oak and hemlock, pine and birch
Tallest thing in every town is
The steeple on the Baptist church

Rolling hills give way to mountains
All ground down by glacial ice
Baxter owned the tallest one and
Gifted us his paradise

The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine

Denmark, Mexico and China
Don't know why they're named that way
Peru and Poland, up near Norway
See them all in just one day

It won't take long you'll like the accent
People tell you what they mean
On your way to Moody's Diner
You should stop at LL Bean

The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine

Downeast is a long way up there
The Airline Road can take you there
Once you smell the wood stoves burning
Hurry to the Fryeburg Fair

We once were part of Massachusetts
But really couldn't stay that way
Now we take some time to warm up
To people who are from away

The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine

The Old Port has so many restaurants
Close the Falmouth-by-the-Sea
We're pretty crowded in the summer
'Cause it's The Way That Life Should Be

The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
