Lyrics
Verse 1
Just like a fairy tale, from a story book or, from the chapters of my life
I got to take a look, at a new prince charming, with a funky kind of style
Pre-chorus
And then he asked me if I'd kindly sing a song
And to the djembe he was kept
We flowed together like two souls in a sarong
The cup of heaven over spilt
Chorus
You are the tree you are the tree, on which I stand
I want to lay my little head, inside your hand
And in this itty little bitty world of charm
I feel safe, I feel safe, I feel safe...in side your arms
Verse 2
You are to me a boy, showed your heart to me with the beating of your drum
The source of all my joy, not a branch or tree, but the root from which I come
Pre- chorus
Chorus until end.
