10 Years

I read in a magazine somewhere Our body's cells regenerate Every ten years like clockwork Ticking ten years too late If it's true, we're completely new people Could we try again someday When a new heart is thumping Kicking, ten years too late Well it's you That I need Ten years is nothing How hard can it be Well it's you That I need Just give me something But your loving set me free I was driving to work and on the radio The singer sounded just like you When you belt out the lyrics to a song that you loved And I hated, and you knew it too It made me think of the creek in the backyard Where I ran away for a day or two Not because you're like a creek or anything I just really wanna run away with you My love is longer than the apple orchard I planted for you And stronger than the ox are pulling So apples surely grew And taller than the highest tree And deeper than its roots And sturdy like the trunk aswayin' And sweeter than its fruit And warm like summer rainfall And farther than the moon And beautiful like springtime When the apple blossoms bloom And I Believe, believe, believe believe And I For me, for me, for me, for me, for me
