Lyrics
Runaway with me to our house built in a tree
All you gotta do is take my hand
It’s a place filled with our love in the branches high above
And we’ll know the world’s at our command
Oooooo, the wind may blow but we will know
Our walls are safe and warm
Oooooo, and when it storms, we’ll keep each other warm
In our little house where we belong
Runaway with me to our house built in a tree
So in love we’ll be
Now the days are getting busy
Working hard, growing up
If you’re ever feeling dizzy
It’s OK, I will say
Runaway with me to our house built in a tree
All you gotta do is take my hand
It’s a place filled with our love in the branches high above
And we’ll know the world’s at our command
Oooooo, the wind may blow but we will know
Our walls are safe and warm
Oooooo, and when it storms, we’ll keep each other warm
In our little house where we belong
Runaway with me to our house built in a tree
So in love we’ll be
Now the sun is slowly setting
You can see the time in all these lines
If you fear you are forgetting
Look to the skies, and close your eyes, and
Runaway with me to our house built in a tree
All you gotta do is take my hand
It’s a place filled with our love in the branches high above
And we’ll know the world’s at our command
Oooooo, the wind may blow but we will know
Our walls are safe and warm
Oooooo, and when it storms, we’ll keep each other warm
In our little house where we belong
Runaway with me to our house built in a tree
So in love we’ll be
So in love we’ll always be
