She is a tree
I'm just a leaf
We live a life of dependency
She's scared to know
I'm scared to grow
What if I go down swinging?
It's bound to rain
On my parade
I lie awake just singing

Bop ba
I'm in over my head again
Bop ba
She's lying in my bed again

If I blow away
One windy day
You'll be OK
With or without me
She's scared to know
I'm scared to grow
What if I go down swinging?
It's bound to rain
On my parade
I lie awake just singing

Bop ba
I'm in over my head again
Bop ba
She's lying in my bed again
Bop ba
I'm in over my head again
Bop ba
She's lying in my bed again

Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba

Bop ba
I'm in over my head again
Bop ba
She's lying in my bed again

She's scared to know
I'm scared to grow
What if I go down swinging?
It's bound to rain
On my parade
I lie awake just singing

Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba
Bop ba

I am a bird
You are a tree
I flew away and left your branch empty
