People In The Trees

In my younger years I saw

People in the trees

They spoke and sheltered me

They're still with me



Was, was I dreaming?

Could I be?

It's so hard to believe

I know that it sounds crazy



Up in the highest of highest trees

Is where they would be

With warm smiles so comforting

The darkest days couldn't be...



Alive, no not this time

Not in these, these days of sunshine

With those friends of mine



One night while I was sleeping

They awoke me

And said that they had to leave

I cried all night and screamed

For my friends in the trees
