Lyrics
Spruce needles sharp under moonlight's glow
Cold wind bites where the wild things go
Rockies whisper low, so low
Cat meowing in the spruce tonight
High above the world in fading light
Why'd you climb so far, so high
Oh, little one, do you want to fly
Mountains hum like an old porch tune
Clouds roll heavy 'neath a lonesome moon
And there you are, yowling out of tune
Branches sway like an ocean tide
Cat cries echo where secrets hide
Cat meowing in the spruce tonight
High above the world in fading light
Why'd you climb so far, so high
Oh, little one, do you want to fly
Did you chase a dream that you couldn't see
A squirrel's tail, a bird's call in the breeze
Now you're stuck where the eagles breathe
