about

Written during the pandemic, this beachy folk tune is easy to listen to, but packs a punch lyrically. It is a lifecycle song of a partnership and romance with a focus on mission in a crazy world that desperately needs a true message about Jesus.

lyrics

You and I are two palm trees
Silhouetted in the sunrise
Reaching up to Heaven
As we grow together
Dancing in the sea breeze
Carrying all these leaves
A beacon in the sky
To you driving by

You and I are two palm trees
Swaying in the sunrise
You see the shoreline
I'll dream with you there
We have a mission
With a different destination
A life of inspiration
Let's fulfill why we're here

Oh, it ain't hard to grow
When we rise above the world

It's easier to see when
You're up high like this
Pointed to the sky while
The world below spins
So let the winds blow their worst
Scorch the ground and split the earth
We'll fall and rise together my dear
Because there's another place prepared for us
Far away from here

You and I are two palm trees
Silhouetted in the sunset
A change of perspective
The wind in our wings
Leaning a little more now
But still pointed upward
We hold this earth loosely
With all of its things

You and I are two palm trees
Silhouetted in the sunset
The darkness is rising
The wind in your hair
Still growing together
And still pointed upward
Our roots are down deep though
They don't belong there

You and I both know
Where our kingdom is, our home

It's easier to see when
You're up high like this
Pointed to the sky while
The world below spins
So let the winds blow their worst
Scorch the ground and split the earth
We'll fall and rise together my dear
Because there's another place prepared for us
Far away from...

Hear those planes in the distance?
Let's guide them on in
Greet them with a smile and
The wave of our hand
This world is a big place
And at times I feel fearful
But you and I can rise high
Like nature's own steeple
