The Girl In the Tree House

Grandpa’s woods were tall and dark
They made for us a world apart
A world where we could make believe
A world where we could dream

The tree house was a wondrous ship
The perfect place to start each trip
To anywhere we’d care to go
That only children know
Chorus
And I was the girl in the tree house
And you were the boy who captured me
And time was a game, a magical game, in the tree house
The summers came and went so fast
Enchanted days that could not last
We grew up and moved away
Like some unfinished play
Goodbye to the girl in the tree house
Goodbye to the the boy who captured me
Goodbye to the games, those magical games in the treehouse

Pirates and mermaids ladies and lords
Dinosaur hunters sashes and swords
Pink lady slippers On the lawn it was Tuesday
In the woods there was no time
And now by chance we meet again
The years have changed us both, but then
It seems that you remember too
The innocence we knew
When I was the girl in the tree house
And you were the boy who captured me
And life's still a game, a magical game
In the tree house
In the tree house
In the tree house
In the tree house
