Lyrics
(DRUINNA solo:)
Behold the trees, our life giving leaves
Nourish and shelter all that abide
Creatures who fly, crawl, hop and hide,
Roots bound together, arms to the sky,
We share what we know through depths down below
And quietly we provide
Those hollowed out spaces, homes and safe places,
a bear and his friends occupy.
ALL:
The woods, the woods, the 100 Acre Wood
There’s a magic in the air
Breathe deeply in, and the trees will tell
What they know of a boy and his bear.
The woods, the woods, the 100 Acre Wood
Feel the cool and gentle breeze,
The birds, they sing, with every living thing
As they join the dance of the trees.
The woods, the woods, the 100 Acre Wood
Smell the scent of sweet honey
The bees, they buzz, and wiggle just because
There’s a tale alive in the trees.
The woods, the woods, the 100 Acre Wood
Is waiting for you and me
Yes, Winnie the Pooh and all his friends are there
Down the path that leads through the trees.
Yes, Winnie the Pooh and all his friends are there…
Down the path….. that leads…..through the woods, the woods, the 100 Acre Wood!
