Lyrics

I am a small acorn, leaving my tall tree home

Tumbling down and down safe in my shell 

Down  to the  ground


Deep in the ground I sleep, taking my time in peace
Dreaming an acorn's dream, I wake up to see

Now I'm a tree


Breathing the sun and rain, watching the seasons change
Feelings of joy inside, expressing my thanks

To be alive


And as the years go by, standing a long, long time
One day I realized the forest is deep

The forest is wise


I am a wise old oak, standing so tall and green
Stretching my branches high, growing in strength

Up to the sun


I am a small acorn, leaving my tall tree home
Tumbling down and down safe in my shell

Down to the ground
