Lyrics

I'm made of bones of the branches, the boughs and the browbeating light
 Oh, my feet are the trunks and my head is the canopy high
 And my fingers extend to the leaves and the eaves and the bright
 Bright as shine, it's my shine
 ♪
 And he was a baby abandoned, entombed in a cradle of clay
 And I was the soul that took pity and stole him away
 And gave him the form of a fawn to inhabit by day
 Bright as day, it's my day
 ♪
 And you have removed this temptation that's troubled my innocent child
 To abduct and abuse and to render a rift and defiled
 But the river is deep to the bends and the water is wild
 I will fly you to the far side
