Charlie Sexton - Wishing Tree lyrics

Under the wishing tree, beneath the big sky The wind sometimes tries to speak, sometimes just cries Under the wishing tree, everything's fine Nothing can touch us here, nothing, not even time Halfway around the world, someone is listening Over this mountain range, across the divide Everything has gotten strange, worlds have begun to collide People running for cover, running out of places to hide Running from themselves and each other They're tripping, stumbling, over their lies Looking for shelter beneath the wishing tree Wishing tree Under the wishing tree, beneath the big sky The wind sometimes tries to speak, sometimes just cries And halfway around the world, you can hear them scream Meanwhile, back in the jungle, meanwhile back in their being They're laughing and crying and singing and praying All saying the same thing Saying, where is the shelter beneath the wishing tree Wishing tree
