Tree Of Life

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life

It may not mean a thing to the passer-by

Might feel a little sting, with the signature tip of my knife

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life

You can walk through this world, and never leave a footprint

And you can keep your mouth shut, afraid to make a difference

Draw initials in the sand, but surely the tide will wash them away

But give your hand to a friend, the message you send is here to stay

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life

It may not mean a thing to the passer-by

Might feel a little sting, with the signature tip of my knife

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life

No, it may not be much of a legacy

No more than a butterfly wing

But if I touch you, and you touch me

We will not be forgotten

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life

It may not mean a thing to the passer-by

Might feel a little sting, with the signature tip of my knife

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life

I'm gonna carve my name on the tree of life
