Lyrics
We Can Plant a Forest
In one seed, you'll find tomorrow. Every seed is a tree of life
In each tree, there is a forest that is waiting to be grown.
With each tree, we'll make a difference.
With each tree, we'll help the world.
In each tree, there is a forest that is waiting to be grown.
We can plant a forest, green and strong.
We'll create a forest, one tree at a time.
All for the future of the earth.
We'll plant a forest, one tree at a time.
From our hands, a world that's changing.
From our hearts, a world of hope.
In each tree, there is a forest that is waiting to be grown.
We can plant a forest, green and strong.
We'll create a forest, one tree at a time.
All for the future of the earth.
We'll plant a forest, one tree at a time.
Let the trees grow free.
Let the trees grow high.
We can make a change, one tree at a time.
We can plant a forest, green and strong.
We'll create a forest, one tree at a time.
All for the future of the earth.
We'll plant a forest, one tree at a time.
One tree at a time. Let's plant a forest.
