They say if you want peace, all you got to do is plant a tree.
It shows a world that's not so bad, and love is only a matter of time.
And all the mountains lead to your door,
I climb with ruffled shoes upon this ocean floor.
Chorus
The secret lies in the music,
where every dream, every footprint, paves a path to travel on.
But if love, if love is all there ever was,
why am I still so alone in a world that seems so small?
I fall away.
verse 2
So I walk and climb a mountain
that releases me from worry, that would otherwise hold me back.
The explanation is in the silence,
where it's you I fall in love with.
Chorus
The secret lies in the music,
where every dream, every footprint, paves a path to travel on.
But if love, if love is all there ever was,
why am I still so alone in a world that seems so small?
I fall away.
verse 3
Music can be a lover,
a guide that guides us on the path we're traveling on.
If I had a story, I would tell it.
It would be about how you have got it all.
So I walk down the path I'm on.
And at the end all that surrounds me are thoughts of you.
So I cherish, and bow down,
because the essence, you said, is we're eternal now.
So I write, write it all down.
Because you said, if life's forever, than I'll be with you when you fall.
Where there are pictures
that hold the best of long lost memories that have been washed away.
But the spirit, it lives on.
And at the bottom of a tree, you'll find a crumbling song.
You see the rocks. You see the paint.
You feel that one you may have lost is still with you along the way.
You see I tried to sweat it all out.
Now a tree has been planted, and your memory lives on.
