Silhouette
Richard Harvey & Friends Lyrics

Mr. Tree how do you keep from falling down
Oh Mr. Tree, how do you manage to remain upright and not topple over?

Branches raised like you had just been found
Your branches extended as if you were recently discovered or uncovered

I guess your roots, they grow so deep
I suppose your roots extend deeply into the ground

They are your knees, they are your feet
Those roots serve as both your knees and your feet

Weather's been a devil, but you've stood tall
Although the weather has been challenging, you have remained resilient and steadfast

Making sure roots hold so you don't fall
Ensuring that your roots are secure in order to prevent yourself from collapsing

And I swear if you had a face, it would be one of first place
I truly believe that if you possessed a face, it would be incredibly beautiful and deserving of recognition

And if I could call you by a name, it would be one of such grace
If I had the opportunity to name you, I would choose a name that embodies elegance and charm

Black silhouette against the sky
A dark silhouette standing out prominently against the sky

First to see sunset, first to see sunrise
You are privileged to witness both the setting and rising of the sun before anyone else

Hands held up, head held high
With your branches uplifted, you proudly hold your head high

Knowing your freedom, knowing your pride
You possess a deep understanding of freedom and take great pride in it

Your body blows in the wind
Your trunk and branches sway gracefully in the wind

How I long to feel that on my skin
I yearn to experience the gentle brushing of the wind on my own skin

Even when night comes, there you are
Even in the darkness of night, you remain present and visible

Bold silhouette standing still in the dark
A confident and striking outline standing motionless in the absence of light

Watching over, making sure
Keeping a vigilant eye, ensuring everything is in order

All is calm and the world's tucked in
Creating a sense of tranquility as the world settles down for rest

Eyes wide open, body turned
Remaining alert and attentive, positioning yourself in a specific direction

Ready to meet the sunrise again
Prepared to greet the rising sun once more

Aahhhhhhh
Expressing a prolonged, melodic sound without specific meaning

Bold silhouette standing still in the dark
A confident and striking outline standing motionless in the absence of light

Bold silhouette standing still in the dark
A confident and striking outline standing motionless in the absence of light

Bold silhouette standing still in the dark
A confident and striking outline standing motionless in the absence of light

Bold silhouette standing still in the dark
A confident and striking outline standing motionless in the absence of light
