When the pressure of life gets a little too much
And when I look at the world and I feel outta touch
I pack a little bag with a snack or two
And then I go to the forest for a fresh point of view
I can stretch my legs, I can stretch my mind
I can lie on my back and look at the sky
I can have a picnic with a friend or two
How I love the forest, there's so much I can do
I can fill my lungs with clean forest air
Have a drink of fresh water from the stream over there
I can play with the squirrels and collect some wood
Yes, a walk in the forest makes me feel so good
Thanks to the trees for the air we breathe
And the clouds that rain on the land underneath
And the leaves I nibble when it's time to eat
Yes, the trees give us wood for our daily needs
I can stretch my legs, I can stretch my mind
I can lie on my back and look at the sky
I can have a picnic with a friend or two
How I love the forest, there's so much I can do
I can fill my lungs with clean forest air
Have a drink of fresh water from the stream over there
I can play with the squirrels and collect some wood
Yes, a walk in the forest makes me feel so good
