when i was a young girl
trying to find her way above the tree tops, the tree tops, the tree tops
when i was a young girl
trying to find her way above the tree tops, the tree tops, the tree tops
i did not care, i did not care
what they called me, what they called me
i'll float above the ocean
the sun above is burning my head
i will grow wings and fly everywhere
when i was a young girl
trying to find her way above the tree tops, the tree tops, the tree tops
i did not care, i did not care
what they called me, what they called me
no, i did not care, i should not care
what they called me, what they called me
i'll float above the ocean
the sun above is burning my head
i will grow wings and fly everywhere
butter warm clouds are dripping into my mouth
tasting of golden
i'll float above the ocean
the sun above is burning my head
i will grow wings and fly everywhere
i'll float above the ocean
the sun above is burning my head
i will grow wings and fly everywhere
trying to find her way above the tree tops, the tree tops, the tree tops
when i was a young girl
trying to find her way above the tree tops, the tree tops, the tree tops
i did not care, i did not care

i will grow wings and fly everywhere
trying to find her way above the tree tops, the tree tops, the tree tops
i did not care, i did not care

i will grow wings and fly everywhere
tasting of golden
the sun above is burning my head
i will grow wings and fly everywhere
the sun above is burning my head
i will grow wings and fly everywhere

I love this song!
Oh no wait, I love all their songs!
I think it's about her when she was younger and she never cared what the other kids thought of her. She was off in her own world, and that was enough.
The music's not particularly good on this one, but not bad.
I love the music on this one, dude! It reminds me of those merry-go-rounds at state fairs and such. (boo bop-bop, boo bop-bop)
ONLY 2 COMMENTS?!?!? WTF?!?!?
Oh well. This is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE Eisley song!i liked the band more as Mos Eisley though. But i think it's cool that they area family band dispite all the previous family bands like the Brady Bunch and the Partrage Family.
Ahaha I remember jumping on my trampoline after it rained once, and whenever I hit it, it would sound like the drum to the beginning of this song, and I sang "When I was a young girl..." and then my sister told me to get off or I would slip and hurt myself.
I love this song. it makes me so happy. Eisley makes me happy.
I think this song is about a girl who when she was young dreamed of flying "I will grow wings and fly every where" And she would try to do that by climbing trees and trying to get to the top. But the other kids thought she was a joke and would call her names and make fun of her.
even though they really have no connection, this song reminds me of the short story A White Heron by Sarah Orne Jewett.
