would you like me to tell you a story
while you're waiting
you'll have to come over to my tree then
come on
this is my lightning tree
do you know what a lightning tree is
[Music]
it's one that's been struck by lightning
and put to sleep
so it can stand there for hundreds of
years without getting old
then
one day
when it feels like it
it can grow back all its sleeves
and be an ordinary tree again
this one's still asleep
lazy thing
but while it's asleep
it's magic
all you've got to do
is put your hand on
there
that's it
like that
and close your eyes
now
tightly
and wish
go on
[Music]
that's it
and it'll come true

absolutely still so anyone who's a bit
afraid doesn't have to be frightened
anymore

he's come a long way
especially for you to see how nice and
kind he is
