Yarrow - Trees Lyrics

Ancient and wise
It touches the ceiling
Of our skies
And humbles our being
All of its ties
To all other seedlings
Stands for all time
While moments are fleeting
From the mighty oak
To the towering redwood
To the aspen grove near home
I'll never know all of it's secrets
Cause' it's seen more than we can know
And it continues to grow
Long after we go
Ancient and wise
Wealthy with wisdom
For all time
Rules it's kingdom
It eventually dies
But the cycle has begun
And from inside
It's spirit is reborn
From the big blue spruce
To the weeping willow
To the evergreen near home
I'll never know all of its secrets
Cause' it's seen more than we can know
And it continues to grow
Long after we go

Ancient and wise
It touches the ceiling
Of our skies
And humbles our being
All of its ties
To all other seedlings
Stands for all time
While moments are fleeting
From the mighty oak
To the towering redwood
To the aspen grove near home
I'll never know all of it's secrets
Cause' it's seen more than we can know
And it continues to grow
Long after we go
Ancient and wise
Wealthy with wisdom
For all time
Rules it's kingdom
It eventually dies
But the cycle has begun
And from inside
It's spirit is reborn
From the big blue spruce
To the weeping willow
To the evergreen near home
I'll never know all of its secrets
Cause' it's seen more than we can know
And it continues to grow
Long after we go
