I couldn't find any decent lyrics online, so here they are:

Verse 1 (Wilson): 
        You could be wise
        Spending a lifetime
        Under your tree, watching apples fall from above
        You could be lost, aimless
        In your hometown
        Nothing in that moment matters more
        Than the book in your hand

Chorus (Wilson):
        And I see impressions
        And I see fingerprints, footsteps
        Tears in the rain
        But nothing is more perfect
        Than the smell of harmony

Interlude (Wilson):
        (oooooh, ooooooh) x 2

Verse 2 (Wilson & Duda):
        You've got your solitude
        And I've got my peace
        And nothing in that moment matters more
        If only in just this one fragment
        Together it grows
        This tree may be aimless may be lost
        Right where I need to be

Chorus x 2 (Wilson & Duda):
        And I see impressions
        And I see fingerprints, footsteps
        Tears in the rain
        But nothing is more perfect
        Than the smell of harmony

Interlude:
        (oooooh, ooooooh) x 2

Chorus x 2(Duda, and then Wilson & Duda):
        And I see impressions
        And I see fingerprints, footsteps
        Tears in the rain
        But nothing is more perfect
        Than the smell of harmony
