Emily Plazek - Treehouse Lyrics
Park playing, sliding slides in Velcro shoesOne boy and a girl laughing the day throughPuppy parks and jungle gyms until darkImagined stories, innocence leaving marksThey’d stay on these swings till the end of timePlaying tag endlessly on and through the nightBest of friends, learning what matters in lifeIf only they could stay together tonightAnd she whispered “Why must we say goodbye?”REFRAIN:Cuz I want so much to be here, in your arms, until the days pass on to midnightBreathing night air, in the stars, it’s the closest heaven we’ll find on earthWe’re little children treehouse-climbingBoth our eyes are learning flyingWe’ll be there, in that treehouseWhere the world can’t stop us nowThey’d heard of the concept but never knewThat it would be theirs, a love so trueLike all things great, they didn’t get it at firstBut as it came it was a gift and a curseTheir summertime love song came to an endThe autumn separated the best friendsWishing each day that time would stop and they’d stayOh, in their Velcro shoes in the park and they’d playAnd she whispered “Why must we say goodbye?”REFRAIN:Cuz I want so much to be here, in your arms, until the days pass on to midnightBreathing night air, in the stars, it’s the closest heaven we’ll find on earthWe’re little children treehouse-climbingBoth our eyes are learning flyingWe’ll be there, in that treehouseWhere the world can’t stop us nowYears passed and the park days, they disappearedSeaons past for the lovers, the other fearedThe other would forget those summer love timesNever again they would feel that same highThen one summer day they both somehow meetRound the corner, to the park down the streetHe arrived to find her swinging to skiesThey both knew they found their meaning in lifeAnd she whispered “Why must we say goodbye?”REFRAIN:Cuz I want so much to be here, in your arms, until the days pass on to midnightBreathing night air, in the stars, it’s the closest heaven we’ll find on earthWe’re little children treehouse-climbingBoth our eyes are learning flyingWe’ll be there, in that treehouse
