In the picture of the champions of 1921 I see the kindness and the power
in the women I come from. Now I feel the wind blow through me.
I'm afraid I'm not that strong. Can you help me find a way to carry on?
You can feel their expectations, Father, Mother, Son
And you wonder if you've made it. Was there more you could have done?
And those of us who know We weren't meant to matter much.
They told us with their eyes and in their touch.
How do you change your fortune? Rewrite your destiny?
Reach deep inside your beauty. Find the roots of the Living Tree.
Find the roots of the Living Tree.
There are friends that stand beside you. Friends that walk away.
There are places that will hold you. Places you can't stay.
Now I'm reaching out my branches. Sinking deep to water flow.
This is the only wisdom that I know.
How do you change your fortune? Rewrite your destiny?
Reach deep inside your beauty. Find the roots of the Living Tree.
Find the roots of the Living Tree.
Will you be my true companion on this open road?
We must fight to tell our stories. We will sing them as we go.
We will make our lives together Though we may not be that strong.
I know we'll find a way to carry on.
How do we change our fortune? Rewrite our destiny?
Reach deep inside our beauty. Find the roots of the Living Tree.
Find the roots of the Living Tree.
