Beyond the Tallest Tree


If you stand with me here today,
To tell me, "It's okay,"
I promise to believe you. 
 
If you climb the tallest tree, 
To see the light I see, 
I promise I'll be ready to catch you. 
 
If you walk the asphalt road, 
To reach for the unknown, 
I promise I'll walk with you. 
 
It doesn't matter where we are,
Whether we are near, 
Or whether we are far, 
I promise to keep the light I see, 
For you to adore it all
Beyond the tallest tree.
