Trees

I have always wanted a house among the trees

Where the cool of the day meets the green and the branches

I have always wanted a house among the leaves

Where the heat of the noon was as cool of the evening

High above the canopy the clouds of angel blue

Cast my mind into the deep

Never waking never sleep

Lost among the innocence and search for ever new

Know that I’ve been here before, high among the treetops there

I have always wanted a house among the trees

And I’d hide like a child in a garden of secrets

I would pass the time there exactly as I please

With no one to call – I’m in love with the forest

High above the swallow dives and dances out it’s song

Even though I hold my breath all this day is aching death

Green is of my solitude is where I must belong

No one speaks and no one seems

High, high up among the trees …

I have always wanted a house among the trees

Where the child I once was is the woman I dreamed of

Oooh…

Oooh…

When the cool of the day meats the green of the branches

And if you see me drifting I beg don’t call me back,

I’ll be gone with the weather,

abide with the leaves
