Story Behind The Song
A memory from my childhood helps me through a rough time. I moved from Indiana to Florida leaving all of my family behind me. A few tears later being extremely homsick. I finally smiled as I remembered an old tire swing and decided it should be a chari

Lyrics
Love had taken her far from home
To places and names she'd never known
She saw lonely faces looking back
But never finding home
In the mirror a little had grown
A little girl that dreamed of home
Love just waits by that old tire swing
With a castle, court and a king
Once upon a time she lived her dreams
In a treehouse made of gold
It doesn't really matter what seeds she's sown
She's still the little girl mom and pop have always known
Even though she can't go back to stay
She holds on to her country ways
Keeping track of the old harvet moon
She knows the rain is coming soon
The cool of the wind let's her know
It's been to long since she's been home
Sometimes when life isn't fair and she turns to find noone there
It's only that she can't believe she no longer sits on Daddy's knee
Love just waits by that old tire swing
With a castle, a court and a king
Once upon a time she lived her dreams
In a treehouse made of gold
It doesn't really matter what seeds she's sown
She's still the little girl mom and pop have always known
