lyrics

wishing tree
sing to me
a new future ringing over

wishing tree
sing to me
no more wasting
waiting
remembering
my memory’s outdated

looking for a new sun
looking for a new sun
waiting on no one to see it for me
don’t need no one to see it clearly

wash away what i lost
give away what i want

only way to get it
is to give up
only way to get it is to give up

long time coming round to me
freedom calling
freedom warning
there will always be more to be

oh, wishing tree, i’ll sing for thee
i’ll hold hope in my feet
mirror you to me

oh wishing tree
i’ll sing for thee of a future we wanna see
