about

lyrics

When I was a young girl,
I chiseled gems out from under the world.
I started in my driveway –
hid the piles of diamonds away.

Didn’t fight no thieves those days,
nah, I didn’t fight no thieves those days.

I once had a monkey’s tail,
but I traded it in for a sail.
We thrashed through the sand and sea –
my big canvas cape and me.

But I’m headed back to the trees these days,
yeah, I’m steering straight for the trees these days.

(whistle)

Maybe I got lost along the way
searching for something great to say.
Sure, I picked up a couple gems from the blue,
but I was only just looking for you.

Finally, I found you,
the way that I need you,
the way that I needed to.
