we should plant a tree

i wanna be with you

i wanna stand with you

i wanna show you that i'll be here

when the seasons change

i wanna reach for you

i wanna bend with you

i wanna shelter you

and you can shelter me the same

and when the wind is cold

and the leaves fall down

we'll wait for spring

to come back around

we should plant a tree

we should carve a heart

we should make some shade

where the river starts

watch the storms of life

from a front porch swing

while our dreams grow wild

and our roots run deep

we should plant a tree

i wanna drink the rain

i wanna feel the sun

be strong and solid to weather

whatever comes

and when we're just a stone

in a hundred years

i want the world to know

that we were here

we should plant a tree

we should carve a heart

we should make some shade

where the river starts

wash the storms of life

from a front porch swing

while our dreams grow wild

and our roots run deep

we should plant a tree

yeah when the wind is cold

and the leaves fall down

we'll wait for spring

to come back around

we should plant a tree

we should carve a heart

we should make some shade

where the river starts

wash the storms of life

from a front porch swing

while our dreams grow wild

and our roots run deep

we should plant a tree
