Trees Lyrics - The Wilkinsons

Billy works on Wall Street 

In an office on the 22nd floor 

He never sees how Jenny's eyes light up each day 

When he walks through that door 

While she's wishin' she could be the one 

To fill his every need 

He's looking back at love he lost 

Somewhere in Tennessee 

CHORUS: 

Trees, can blind us to the forrest 

'Til we never even notice 

All the love that's right before us 

We can't see the flowers that are bloomin' 

Sometimes the truth gets hidden by the leaves 

Of trees 

Becky slams the bedroom door 

Her mama says tonight she's stayin' in 

What gives her the right to make up 

All the rules and try to pick her friends 

Becky doesn't understand a single mother's job is tough 

And all her rules are just reflections of a mama's love 

CHORUS: 

Trees, can blind us to the forrest 

'Til we never even notice 

All the love that's right before us 

We can't see the flowers that are bloomin' 

Sometimes the truth gets hidden by the leaves 

Of trees 

There's beauty all around us 

If we read between the lines 

There's so much waitin' for us 

If we only look behind 

CHORUS: 

Those trees, that blind us to the forrest 

'Til we never even notice 

All the love that's right before us 

We can't see the flowers that are bloomin' 

Sometimes the truth gets hidden by the leaves 

Of trees 

Of trees
