Instrumental Intro:
Verse 1:
The night was starbright and sleeplessAs I tossed and turned in my bed.
Some selfish thoughts were torturing me
But I could only cry in my head.
I knew I had to surrender
I knew I had to give up
A storm was brewing inside
And I began to erupt.
We are the union
We are the Tree.
Chorus:
Tears in TennesseeTis the water that we were sharing.
Tears in Tennessee
Tears that set me free
From my fears….that year.
Verse 2: I woke up and the dream I had was
starting to come true.
The morning sky was orange & blue
And I just wanted to tell you.
I could have been anybody.
I could have been anything.
I tried being nothing and wound up
Being everything.
We are the union
We are the Tree.
Chorus:
Instrumental verse:
Chorus:
Verse 3: Well, you might say that I’m selfish and you might
Think that I’m unkind
You might say my jokes aren’t funny or that I’m
Wasting all of my time.
But I’m your mirror
As you are one to me.
See if you’re not laughing and if you’re
Not really free.
We are the union
We are the Tree.
Chorus:
