LYRICS
Child on the sidewalk
Spinning through the air
His laughter pours like honey
And the bees don’t even care
He follows trails to ant hills
Nestled in the grass
He marvels at their travels
With leaves upon their backs
His sister gets a scratch on
Her knee ‘cause she fell down
He brushes dirt to fix the hurt
Brings a smile to her frown
A man says son the future
Is a time you’ll one day see
What do you imagine
You’ll grow up to be
He answers
I’m a dancer, I’m a healer,
I’m a lover of nature
I can grow free like the tall trees
I am right now not later
Child by the ocean
Her town of golden sand
Has castles reaching sunbursts
And a thousand blue dragons
She charges to the water
And she’s followed by her friends
Goes back to hold the hand of
One too afraid to swim
She listens to the sermon
From the sanctuary pews
Looks out painted windows
Wonders who they’re praying to
Preacher says the future
Is a time you’ll one day see
What do you imagine
You are called to be
She answers
I’m a dreamer, I’m a leader
I believe in something greater
Like the tall trees I can grow free
I am right now not later
Grandad in the backyard
Gathers up pecans
Fallen from the largest
Tree he still leans on
Grandkid gathers woodchips
For a fire in the cold
He shows her how to build it
They watch the embers glow
She asks a thousand questions
About the good old days
How high did you climb mountains
Was your beard always gray
He said I wish you could have known me
As a younger stronger man
What do you imagine
I was like back then
She answers
You’re a teacher, my protector,
Our family wisdom keeper
Like the tall trees where the roots reach
You’re the young man just deeper
I’m a dancer, I’m a healer,
I’m a lover of nature
I’m a dancer, I’m a healer,
I’m a lover of nature
I’m a dreamer, I’m a leader
I believe in something greater
I’m a teacher, I protect her,
I’m a family wisdom keeper
Like the tall trees where the roots reach
I’ll be right now just deeper
Like the tall trees where the roots reach
I’ll be right now just deeper
Like the tall trees where the roots reach
I’ll be right now just deeper
