Lyrics

Roots -Family Tree-

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When I was young

Yearning to be free

I never cared

How hard the road might be

I left my home

For dreams I don't recall

For I was young

And knew it all

The tree grows green

And blossoms in the spring

When its roots are deep and strong

A man may dream

But when his heart needs peace

Then his roots will lead him home

I'm older now

And at last I see

Held by my roots

My spirit can be free

To stand again

Where my fathers stood

I feel a love

I never thought I would

I am the sum

Of all their many parts

The roots grow deep

Inside my heart

The road will bend

And every journey end

Where the heart knows it belongs

So through this life

I'll travel far and wide

Then my roots will lead me home

The road will bend

And every journey end

Then my roots will lead me home
