lyrics

There's a bird singin' in a living tree.
There's a song living inside of me.
I'd like to fly high as the eye can see,
Just like the bird singing in the living tree.

The forest is flush with the seed of change,
Flowers flowin' 'long the mountain range.
Hear the churning seas, the howling breeze,
Me and the bird singin' in the living tree.

The city of roses one day will wilt,
The red bricks crumble and the towers lilt,
But from up above, untethered and free,
You will hear the bird singin' in the living tree.

The love of life shines just like the sun.
For the young at heart, it keeps shining on.
It pulls the shade of sorrow away,
Just like the bird singing in the living tree.
