Everyone it seems 
Is looking for the grass that's greener here 
And through my window pane 
The scenery flies by and disappears 
So tell to me the secret 
That won't let the memories fade away 
Until I am home again, where the trees stand still 

Yesterday it seems 
I traveled in a younger man's clothes 
Living out this dream 
And wandering through fields of touch and go 
Moving on forever 
Watching the distance fade away 
But now I just want to land, where the trees stand still 

All this time 
On this line 
Here then I am gone 

Tonight I want a life 
Where the faces are the same most every day 
Tonight I want a wife 
To sit with me and watch our children play 
All the world between us 
Watching the years fade away 
And when the laughing's done, we'll watch the trees stand still 
Everyday, where the trees stand still 
We will make a home, where the trees stand still
