Shadetree - Brett Harris

I saw you standing in the yard

Tearing down your house of cards

When I stopped to say hello

You pretended not to hear

Wish that you could disappear

But there’s nowhere left to go

Heard you say everything that begins

Needs an ending

But the world keeps turning around

Turning us upside side down

And back to where we started out

So why can’t you and I start over again?

I was swinging in the trees

Listening to a gentle breeze

When a thought ran through my mind

Suddenly it seemed absurd

How a single solitary word

Could you treat me so unkind

It’s a shame how you’re missing

The signals I’m sending

But the world keeps turning around

Turning us upside side down

And back to where we started out

So why can’t you and I start over again?

Don’t say you’re through with me just yet

You might do something you’ll regret

When you’ve considered all that we’ve been through

I’m not saying I’ve got all the answers

And my head’s filled with doubt

All I know is you’re all I’ve been thinking about

As the world keeps turning around

Turning us upside side down

And back to where we started out

So why can’t you and I start over again?

Yeah, the world keeps turning around

Turning us upside side down

And back to where we started out

So why can’t you and I start over again?
