Underneath the Marshmallow Tree
We dream of the past, the present and the future. We dream of glorious colors and swirling sounds that surround us. We dream of greatness and tenderness. Dreams can take us places. This song invites us to fly through the nighttime sky and dream together. It is dedicated to the magical world of music that I've been lucky enough to share with so many musical friends -- To the rocket ship daydreams and swallows (golondrinas!) in flight!

Diving into crystal clear seas
Floating through a lavender breeze
Rocketship daydreams flying o’er a sea of green
Underwater castles made of sea and sand
Spiral cloud staircases rising through the land
Wherever we wanna go, we’ll go hand in hand
And we’ll sing these melodies (la la la la)
And ramble through the breeze (ooh ooh ooh)
We’ll close our eyes (la la la la)
And the sound comes alive
Underneath the marshmallow tree
You and me, we’ll meet in a dream
Underneath the marshmallow tree
We’ll fly through the nighttime sky
I can be a blackbird, singin’ into the night
A sparrow or a mockingbird, a swallow taking flight
As long as we’re together, we’ll be alright
And we’ll sing these melodies (la la la la)
And ramble through the breeze (ooh ooh ooh)
We’ll close our eyes (la la la la)
And the sound comes alive
Underneath the marshmallow tree
You and me, we’ll meet in a dream
Underneath the marshmallow tree
We’ll fly through the nighttime sky
