Her eyes alight with
A lifetime of fighting forest fires
Under full moon light, she sheds time
Her wounds are the rings around her eyes
So I held her tight, a feeling so large
My arms couldn't reach around it
And I'm looking up amazed at the stillness
And the will to grow up
What we set free
Comes back if it's meant to be
All we need is to breathe
The trees know that, the trees know that
The air we breathe
Her exhale's beneath all life's complexity
And she molds the Earth
With roots wound tightly 'round brothers and sisters
Her life's endless and her death's a presence
She craves nothing but the truth of the moment
And I've been raised up by the majesty of
My love, a redwood
What we set free
Comes back if its meant to be
All we need is to breathe
The trees know that, the trees know that
I want to trust you like that
I want to give it all away no take back
I know small seeds of change
Can turn into redwoods some day
With just a little bit of rain
What we set free
Comes back if its meant to be
All we need is to breathe
The trees know that, the trees know
What we set free
Comes back if its meant to be
All we need is to breathe
The trees know that, the trees know that
