oom-ba-pa / chi-tat-ah
oom-ba-pa / chi-tat-ah

any given tree is more important
than all the songs we've ever sung about love
and any given rock is destined to travel further
than all the words and all the names we've ever known of

la-la lai-la
la-la lai-la la

it's so easy to waltz around with big thoughts in our head
like what if this is all just a dream
and why not color the world in the way I feel
when so often I feel like the only thing that's real?
except...

any given tree is more important
than all the novels we've ever written about love
and every little pebble is destined to travel further
than any idea we've had the faintest of

oom-ba-pa / chi-tat-ah
oom-ba-pa / chi-tat-ah
la-la-lai-la
oom / ah

it's so magical to sing about blackbirds and nightingales
until all we can hear is ourselves
see our face on the moon and our toes in the garden
years in the tree rings and dates in the carbon
but then we all know...

any given tree is more important
than all the poems we have written about love
and any grain of sand is destined to travel further
than all the sweet melodies we know of

la-la la-la-la-la
la-la la-la-la-la
