Over the Treetops (MTV Unplugged) Lyrics by a-ha

MTV Unplugged - Summer Solstice

2017

[Verse 1]
Hey, beautiful farm on the top of the hill
Whenever I pass by I'm thinking I will
Find someone like you, goodbye avenue
And then I'll be yearning for this too

[Chorus]
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky

[Verse 2]
Stop calling her restless, she moves with the sun
Gets out of her bed past noon, closer to one
I follow her mind, I follow her blind
She leaves and I'm two steps behind

[Chorus]
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky

[Bridge]
A trip is a fall
To fall is to trip
A trip is a fall
To fall is to trip
A trip is a fall
To fall is to trip
A trip is a fall

[Verse 3]
She changes how she feels about things, that's okay
It works for me, I think I like it that way
Nothing is true, something is false
Address the child as a whole

[Chorus]
Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky

Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky

Over the treetops fly
Birds in the sky
Over the treetops high
High in the sky

(spoken)
Thank you! Alright, erm, before we do the next one, looks like we in- have a few things to d- sort out. But, er, I'd like to take the opportunity then, while we're doing that, to introduce the musicians to you guys. Erm, our string section, our wonderful string section over here, is Madeleine Ossum, Emilie Lidsheim, and on cello, Tove Erikstad. And behind me, erm, on multiple instruments, a guy who arranged a lot and produced a lot of what you're hearing today, Mr. Lars Horntveth. On drums, a familiar face, Karl Oluf Wenneberg. Clearly you're all following him on Instagram or something. Yeah, he just got a lot of shit for leaking the news about this event a couple of weeks too early. Which is actually my fault, but I didn't know how to do it, so he got the blame. So, er, on bass, Even Ormestad. And, on keyboards, Morten Qvenild
