It's a tale of a girl who traveled the world Who walked where the rivers run free She went for the love
That she found up above
Where the clouds meet the sky and the sea
Climbing up the tree and you will see
Further than they want you to be
'Cause it is by the scars that we learn who we are So just keep climbing higher and breathe
As she'd met all the people of both war and peace She would go to where hearts are at ease
It was under this oak
Where she heard her heart spoke
Up of love and the rights of her soul
As the years did go on
Suddenly she was gone
And it's said she was taken by trees
This is why, oh my dear we go here every year Just to hear the beat of hearts that are free
Climbing up the tree and you will see
Further than they want you to be
Cause it is by the scars that we learn who we are So just keep climbing higher and breathe
