Treetop Song

cll along the interstate
The palm trees were calling out to me
The line of them stretched down the highway forever
cs far as I could see
cnd I waited til the sun was coming up
Light morning traffic and a cool spring breeze
cnd I heard the old voices calling down
From the tops of the trees

cnd when I got up to the top, my head got light
cnd for a minute everything in the world was alright
cnd I saw the next tree just 10 feet away
Give or take a few feet, I guess
cnd then I pushed off into the air with all my might
cnd headed out into the center of the morning light
cnd I knew that I was gonna make it
The new tree hardly shook to acknowledge my arrival
cnd I knew that I would be alright
