I am just a commoner
Perched in a pocket of a needle tree
Patiently
I wanna be an astronomer
Rise up above the forest
Aurora Borealis
Pressing close to me
Oh oh oh
Every year the tree grows and I grow with it
Oh oh oh
Keep your eyes on the sunrise
You don’t wanna miss it
You don’t wanna miss it
I make friends easily
Everyone says I’m tame, knows my name
When I’m hanging around
You wanna make a meal out a me
Revel in my trusting nature, drum major
In love with the sound
I’m in love, I’m in love
With the sound
Oh oh oh
Every year the tree grows and I grow with it
Oh oh oh
Keep your eyes on the sunrise
You don’t wanna miss it
You don’t wanna miss it
When I’m nervous I sit still
When I’m curious I sit still
When I’m in love I clap my hands
Like the beating of my heart
When I look up I see red
I got needles in my bed
And I’m a fool, I’m a fool, I’m fool
And I’m falling apart
And I’m falling apart
Oh oh oh
Every year the tree grows and I grow with it
Oh oh oh
Keep your eyes on the sunrise you don’t wanna miss it
You don’t wanna miss it
You don’t wanna miss it
