lyrics

If we were all trees in a forest, I'd want to be growing next to you.
We'd wrap our gnarled root fingers around each others, and be growing and growing it's true.
I'd be the oak you'd be the cedar, so very different you know,
but still we could be together, as we grow and grow and grow.

I know there would still be struggles, with inventions like the saw and axe
But we would hold onto each other and our struggles would eventually pass.
Sometimes we'll lean on each other, as the storms they do blow through
And as the sun dares to show its face, we'll dare to stand up too.

Sometimes giants like my grandmother, will find that it is time
To lie down in the soft green arms, the soft green arms of God
Then saplings like my cousin, up from the ground they'd burst
Not like they're a replacement, but reminders of what came first

Life as a tree can be so deceiving, seems like we never move,
But really we're always growing, always reaching for the truth.
And soon our heads are up in the clouds, as we grow from mountain tops
We see our planet all around us, and it seems impossible

Let us grow together, let us grow together, let us grow together, let us grow together....
