Lyrics
come be with me in this tree and we will lay out in its branches and i will wash you clean where no one will watch us come be with me in this tree high up where no one will follow we can holler at the sea make faces at the ground below us high above the painted lines on cold concrete i will hold you in my arms to be with me <some stuff i can't remember>

this must have been one of the first few songs i wrote. i wrote the chord progression in my kitchen after i bought my telecaster, my first electric. i was playing it unplugged since i was still saving up for an amp. i thought this was a good song at the time, looking back at it now it seems pretty dull and childish. i think the lyrics were inspired by mark strand's poem "The man in the Tree". I was reading his selected works at the time.
