Lately I've been feeling
Ill at ease
Ill at ease
I'm a baby
In a tree
Don't look at me
My skin
covers me
but deep inside
what you can't see
I keep it hid
especially
from birds of pray
who want to feed
and when you go far out on a limb
well then you'll see
Lately I've been moving
to and fro
with the breeze
there's so much wind
blowing through my tree
I'm a baby
lay hands on me
Whereve all my friends gone
where could they be
where could they be
Deep down in my soul
deep deep down
deeper still
I have no idea when the branch will give
good lord
and Ive been waiting so long
to be found
find me now
and you can leave me
just a baby in a tree
Lately Ive been feeling
all this pain in my back
from all the knives you say relax
well i can't do that
If i stop to take a breath
I might choke
choke to death
Im a baby in a tree
the air is thin around me
whereve all my friends gone
where could they be
where could they be
Deep down in my soul
deep deep down deeper still
I have no idea when the branch will give
good lord
and Ive been waiting so long
to be found
find me now
and you can leave me just a baby in a tree
Dig me a hole
a bed for my roots to grow
dig it deep and dig it slow
deep down in my soul
I've been waiting so long
So if you say its the end for me
understand for me thatd be fine
you see
because we all know the branch gives some day
good lord
