Treetop

Matt Hammitt


Treetop, just a boy looking out at the world
Before he knew what it meant to love a girl
Doesn't know time will tell of how he once fell
Chasing those diamonds and pearls
Down from the treetop, up on top of the world

Where he would learn to fly alone
Let his wings unfold
Take the path of no return
That always leads back home

Oh, nobody said it'd be easy
Nobody said it'd come freely
Nobody said it'd be perfect, but it's worth it
Oh, 'cause love'll never be harmless
Sometimes it feels a bit heartless
Some days it's gonna feel hopeless, but know this
When you're lost, look up, He'll lead you back

Grown man on his back looking up at the sky
His heart hurts thinking 'bout how he used to fly
Wondering if time can heal what is broken
Maybe he can find a way
Back to the treetop
Up on top of the world

Where he once tried to fly alone
Let his wings unfold
Took the path of no return
That's turning him back home

Oh, nobody said it'd be easy
Nobody said it'd come freely
Nobody said it'd be perfect, but it's worth it
Oh, 'cause love'll never be harmless
Sometimes it feels a bit heartless
Some days it's gonna feel hopeless, but know this
When you're lost, look up, He'll lead you back

I just wanna be somebody
I just wanna be somebody
I just wanna be somebody
I just wanna know I'm loved
I just wanna be somebody
I just wanna know

I never flew alone
You saw my wings unfold
On the path of no return
You knew I'd come back home

Oh, nobody said it'd be easy
Nobody said it'd come freely
Nobody said it'd be perfect, but it's worth it
Oh, 'cause love'll never be harmless
Sometimes it feels a bit heartless
Some days it's gonna feel hopeless, but know this
When you're lost, look up, He'll lead you back
When you're lost, look up, He'll lead you back
