The Lightning Tree lyrics

Down in the meadow where the wind blows free

In the middle of a field stands a lightning tree

Its limbs all torn from the day it was born

For the tree was born in a thunderstorm

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

It's never too late for you and me

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Down in the meadow where the wind blows light

The lightning struck in the middle of the night

Limbs stripped bare by the lightning flare

The lightning flare was a wild affair

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

It's never too late for you and me

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Down in the meadow where the wind blows cold

The lightning tree stands stiff and old

Branches bent when the lightning went

The lightning ripped from the firmament

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Down in the meadow with the wind in the west

The lightning tree faced up to the test

Its heart went snap when it took the rap

The terrible rap of the thunderclap

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

It's never too late for you and me

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Down in the meadow when the wind blows free

A whisper of green in the lightning tree

Dreams come true when you want them to

If you want them to, then it's up to you

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

It's never too late for you and me

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

It's never too late for you and me

Grow, grow, the lightning tree

Never give in too easily

Lightning tree, lightning tree

Lightning tree
