lyrics

please don't call me immature just because i love to feel
the rough bark scrape my fingers and the cool moss against my cheek
and while you stand around i'm thirty feet above the ground
swinging in the breeze this is how i feel free

i want to climb trees every day
until the day that i die
i never felt so alive
as when i feel like i could touch the sky

I'm always jealous of the birds when i see them on the wing
I wish i could fly with them to the warm south until spring
and soar up in the clear air and look down on everything
so I'll climb as high as i can get and with them i will sing

To climb up in a beech tree and feel it's solid boughs beneath me
as the sunlight filters down to bath me in it's cool green light
and though the climb up wasn't easy it's the surest way to please me
I'm swaying like i'm at sea and feeling truly happy

one last thing i will say before i disappear
come upo here and join me you can see so far from here
for it's good for your body and even better for your soul
and i swear that I'm never going to fall
