Looking out at forests painted green We could barely see From way up top the willow tree Shaking branches, old familiar breeze Was only you and me In our own world covered in green In a world that's filled just with flowers Can't you be my green? Someday, someday Can we just be the trees? Flowers they all wither While trees they stand up tall Can our love it delivered Even half as long? In a world that's filled just with flowers Can't you be my green? Someday, someday Can we just be the trees? You're like me sanctuary I need you to feel peace To feel peace In a world that's filled just with flowers Can't you be my green? Someday, someday Can we just be the trees? Let you rest inside the shade As we waste the day away Let you rest inside the shade The shade, oh, oh
