Greener As We Grow

[Verse 1]

I am not deep at all

I'm the shallow west of man

A pine tree in the sand has better chance in wind

The willow tree, his roots like penetrating vines

Shall search the ground entire to find the well-lit heights



[Verse 2]

My heart is like a bird that sets out on his own

And having gotten far, forgets the way back home

Oh never let me roam far from the grassy sea

Oh plant me like a flower, I'll burn and burn for thee



[Verse 3]

Let come the wind and rain

To soak the greater vine

We're greener as we grow

And simpler with time
