We Should Plant a Tree

I wanna be with you I wanna stand with you I wanna show you that I'll be here When the seasons change I wanna reach for you I wanna bend with you I wanna shelter you And you can shelter me the same And when the wind is cold And the leaves fall down We'll wait for spring To come back around We should plant a tree We should carve a heart We should make some shade Where the river starts Watch the storms of life From a front porch swing While our dreams grow wild And our roots run deep We should plant a tree I wanna drink the rain I wanna feel the sun Be strong and solid to weather Whatever comes And when we're just a stone In a hundred years I want the world to know That we were here We should plant a tree We should carve a heart We should make some shade Where the river starts Wash the storms of life From a front porch swing While our dreams grow wild And our roots run deep We should plant a tree Yeah when the wind is cold And the leaves fall down We'll wait for spring To come back around We should plant a tree We should carve a heart We should make some shade Where the river starts Wash the storms of life From a front porch swing While our dreams grow wild And our roots run deep We should plant a tree
