listen to the trees they sigh
i lie awake by your side
i watched you sleeping last night
the seasons change in time
the redwoods dot the sky
i'm still scared of flying
but with you forever's fine.
last night i felt the earth move
a dried up lake now in bloom
i dedicate this to you
the trees all sing at night
i hold you close this time
we watched the world unwind
and with you forever's fine.
we flooded empty rivers
traced the outline drawn on your shirt
sharing air in the back of a truck
you stayed when you could have left
and i'm still scared to death but
most days i think of you and
forever doesn't seem so bad
you smile i feel my heart melt
the joyous pain that i felt
against my better judgment
fire ignites the sky line
i had a dream where i died
but you were there by my side
so i'll dream of you forevermore
