    “Redwood Tree” was co-written by Cam, Tyler Johnson (Harry Styles, Sam Smith) and Anders Mouridsen, and produced by Johnson. The song was largely inspired by the majestic Redwood Tree in the backyard of Cam’s childhood home. Redwoods can grow for thousands of years and are a symbol for community and communication. They are believed to tap into psychic abilities connected with past lives and other dimensions of reality, which ties into our defining human relationship with time.
    “I grew up with a redwood tree in my backyard as my climbing tree. Spent so many afternoons up there as a kid looking out and dreaming about the future,” says Cam. “It feels like I’ve lived 5 lifetimes since then - I’ve done more than I can even remember, but still part of me wishes I could’ve stayed put, to have that time at home. But you can’t be in two places once and you couldn’t have known then what you know now. It’s a song about time, and whatever way you spend it still feels like just a blink to a redwood tree.”

    Lyrics:
    Oh redwood tree
    Don't you recognize me
    I know it's not much time for you
    But it's been decades for me
    Oh redwood tree
    Sorry I had to leave
    An eager mind and a teenage heart
    Can get hooked on a dream
    I saw the world
    You saw my parents grow old
    You've got your roots
    And I've got the wind
    The wind in my soul
    OOoooo don't know what you have when you're young
    OOooo but you'll know what you had when it's gone
    You'll know what you had
    Oh redwood tree
    Now it's just you and me
    Back then it was hard to stay
    And easy to leave
    In the soft summer breeze
    It's so simple to see
    That time kept tickin' back home
    While I was livin' for me
    I saw the world
    You saw my parents grow old
    You've got your roots
    And I've got the wind
    The wind in my soul
    OOoooo
    Don't know what you have when you're young
    OOooo but you'll know what you had when it's gone
    The only thing left of what used to be is you
    The only thing left of what used to be is you
    Oh redwood tree
    Don't you recognize me
    OOoooo don't know what you have when you're young
    OOooo but you'll know what you had when it's gone
    OOoooo don't know what you have when you're young
    OOooo but you'll know what you had when it's gone
    You'll know what you had
    Old redwood tree

    “I saw the world, you saw my parents grow old.” - Well that hit me pretty deep... 😢

    " back then it was hard to stay, and easy to leave" is a whole mood. The writing on this is so good.

    I'm not a big country fan but hearing her music is slowly making me one:)

    The song is really sad but it’s sadder that CAM is not super-famous.

    This song is wonderful. It hit me right in the feels. My parents are getting older now... time has a funny way of working. The Mom & Dad of my teens and 20’s that I thought would never be “old” are finally getting there, fast.

    This song hit Home. It's beautiful. My dad planted 3 Birch trees for my sisters and I. I'm youngest at 42 and all 3 still stand. Thank you. Definitely my #1 song

    Awww, Cam...this got me. Your voice is sounding better than ever, btw. I am loving your new music! Keep it coming :)

  • @jondoe8889

    That voice, the songs she writes, the great production and storytelling of her videos... but maybe the best is how well she acts in them! OK, this song isn't about acting. But the others are!

    "Don't know what you have when you're young. But you'll know what you had when it's gone." No truer words have been spoken. Take it from me :-(

    Beautiful melody, lyrics and of course Cam's voice. Whoever came up with the idea for the video and those that executed it did perfectly. It really fits the song and delivers a sense of relaxed nostalgia.
