Every single morning
I'd go through all my clothes
I'd brush my teeth and comb my hair
And put on my Dad's cologne
I'd leave the house real early
And get to school on time
I'd go and sit in homeroom class
And ditch the place by 9
We'd meet outside the churchyard
Underneath the willow tree
The place where we had carved our names
And talkedabout our dreams
We shared the same desite
To run away from home
To go and find a secret place
Where we could be alone
Somewhere in Jamaica
Maybe in Brazil
On top a little mountain
Beside a grassy hill
Somewhere in Djakarta
Or a Polynesian Sea
It really didn't matter where
If she was there with me
We went around in circles
About our crazy plan
And talked about our parents
How they'd never understand
But it really didn't matter
We were takin' off from home
We knew what we were looking for
A secret place where we could be alone
Somewhere in Jamaica
Maybe in Brazil
On top a little mountain
Beside a grassy hill
Somewhere in Djakarta
Or a Polynesian Sea
Underneath a Waterfall
Or a Euciplitus Tree
Somewhere in Morroco
Maybe in Peru
In a Costa Rican Jungle
Or in a small canoe
Somewhere in Malaysia
Or maybe Mosambeek
It really didn't matter where
If she was there with me
Oh how we wished we were older
Sailing through Montego bay
Just like the Birds we would fly
Fly to a place far away
Somewhere in Jamaica
Maybe in Brazil
On top a little mountain
Beside a grassy hill
Somewhere in Djakarta
Or a Polynesian Sea
Underneath a Waterfall
Or a Euciplitus Tree
Somewhere in Morroco
Maybe in Peru
In a Costa Rican Jungle
Or in a small canoe
Somewhere in Malaysia
Or maybe Mosambeek
It really didn't matter where
If she was there with me
I wonder what she's doing
Does she ever think of me
And all the dreams that we once shared
Beneath the Willow Tree
