Little girl walks in the grass
She finds a beetle on its back
Turns it over, sets it free
There in the spirit of a child
Before she’s learned to take her wild
She has answers that we need
Can I be old and still be wild
Run through forests like a child
Knowing I’m both held and free
Find the answers in the trees
Endless curiosity
Find it all inside of me
I used to care what you might think
I was afraid to go too deep
Or be too much
So I got smaller
Felt myself avert my eyes
Quiet down, apologize
I could feel it in my shoulders
(I barely know her)
Can I be old and still be wild
Run through forests like a child
Knowing I’m both held and free
Find the answers in the trees
Endless curiosity
Find it all inside of me
What we feel deep down we know
What we feed will grow
Now I’m older and still wild
Run through forests like a child
Knowing I’m both held and free
I find the answers in the trees
Endless possibilities
Find it all inside of me
