Top of the World

When I climb a tree, I feel a little closer to heaven.

Running through the woods

You and I, each a wing

Amid great conversations

I spot the best thing

Come climb with me

To the top of that tree!

The leaves may be itchy

The bark may be rough

Sure we are tired, but

We can take it. We’re tough.

Come climb with me

To the top of this tree!

 

The trunk is so wide

And the branches are high

But we’re close to the top

Oh, look at the sky!

As you climb with me

To the top of this tree!

We’ve conquered the beast

We’re at the very top

I feel so alive

What if I just drop?

Why’d you climb with me

To the top of this tree?

What a breathtaking sunset.

This must be why.

Such a beautiful thing

Makes us both heave a sigh.

Thanks for climbing with me

To the top of that tree.
