[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
In a world that's filled just with flowers
Can't you be my green?
Someday, someday
Can we just be the trees?

[Verse 2]
Flowers they all wither
While trees they stand up tall
Can our love it delivered
Even half as long?

[Chorus]
In a world that's filled just with flowers
Can't you be my green?
Someday, someday
Can we just be the trees?

[Bridge]
You're like me sanctuary
I need you to feel peace
To feel peace

[Chorus]
In a world that's filled just with flowers
Can't you be my green?
Someday, someday
Can we just be the trees?

[Post-Chorus]
Let you rest inside the shade
As we waste the day away
Let you rest inside the shade
The shade, oh, oh
