Well I am growing like a grass blade
Reaching for the sun.
And I am blowing like a lampshade
With a light for you, my love.
And I am jumping like it's third grade
With my birthday coming up.

So let us sleep in the house's shade
Until our time has come.
And on that day the ground will freeze
And we will die and be nothing.
But right now, tall and green
So let us sing.

Let us be fertile in our settlement
That's been given to us.
While the mountains and the rivers play their instruments
And we just listen
Well I have heard and I have seen
There is a purpose, there is a meaning
When you hold my hand and you kiss my cheek, baby.

When I hear your voice
Like a sparrow calling me up on high
I will open up my heart
Like a window and let you come inside.
