We ran
We leaped
We soared
We hollered with glee.
Down the lane
Through the field
Under the tree
That's where we settled
Old as can be
Beneath the stars
Twinkling bright
We trusted
We cried
We smiled
We lived.
When the sun came up
We didn't even see
The bond that had grown
Ran as deep as the roots of a tree.
From then on
Whenever we looked at the sky
The stars formed the shape of a tree.
