Glass Apple

(verse 1)

I am in awe of your confidence

you don't let your young age get in the way

youth can be a double-edge blade

adults say you know nothing

but you push it to the side

(chorus)

we made it through the spring

and the heat of a summer of love

in the autumn the red leaves above

let's harvest what we made this season

the glass apple hanging from the tree

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I've said "I love you" countless times

but that doesn't exactly make you mine

but now that you're my only

I bet that forbidden fruit tastes like honey

(chorus)

the happiness of your smile

is like the plaid that flannels me and you

we're a matching set

those October stormy nights we'll both get through

the glass apple still hangs from the tree

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I'd say "I love you" through all your cracking banisters

and perfect storms that threaten our vows

sometimes the weight of youth

breaks the pressure of truth

we can redraw the lines that blur

(chorus)

we made it through the spring

and the heat of a summer of love

in the autumn the red leaves above

let's harvest what we made this season

the glass apple hanging from the tree

the glass apple hanging from the tree

(end chorus)
