In my garden an old oak is living
More than a century her bounty she's given
Acorns aplenty, windbreak and shade
From all her children a grove she has made
They bend in the breeze invite me to play
Sweeping me up in their magical sway
Fully outlandish bejeweled in leaves
My frineds of enchantment the guardian trees
Dance of the trees, Dance of the trees
Dance of the trees
Dance of the trees, dancing with me
Out on the street I'm sure to see
Wherever I look trees are dancing with me
Sometimes they tell me "It's hard to survive
In all this concrete, how can we thrive?"
Each tree is a wizard, balancing life
Nourishing earth from breath, water and light
Titans who shelter, "We temper the sun
Hear what we say before we're undone!"
Dance of the trees, dance of the trees
Dance of the trees
Dance of the trees, dancing with me
Deep in the woods spirits abound
Gods and goddesses traipsing around
Waltzing with wood nymphs in lichen and moss
By glow of starlight, to leafy applause
One day I'll lay down in my forest of oak
Give up my body, strengthen their growth
Some spring I'll arise, a sapling like them
To dance with the magical trees once again
