lyrics

I woke beneath the leaves
And suddenly ascended from the darkness
Was awestruck by the starkness of the light

The life the love and ease
The way the air smells when you’re there
The way the light shines off your hair

And before long, I had gone
A branch or two beyond the height
That I ever thought I might
But it’s too soon, so have your room
And never be afraid to knock
‘Cause my door is never locked for you

Well my finger took the fall
And it started with a smile
But now it’s gone on for a while

Its not worth it at all
To try and make it go away
‘Cause it’s always gonna stay

And in a while, I’ll see your smile
And I’ll reach for that last branch
Because I have to take that chance
And one fine day, I’ll be able to say
That I’m standing at the top
And I’m never gonna drop

‘Cause I climbed so high and I’ll stay up here
With my apple in the sky
So until that day baby I’ll just wait
Till it’s my time

Well I know this is for real
‘Cause I’ve travelled all this distance
Despite meeting such resistance

‘Cause I know how you feel
And I know there’ll come a day
When you feel that it’s ok

To trust again, so I’ll wait till then
And I’ll be there when you call
And I’ll catch you if you fall

And one fine day, I’ll be able to say
That there’s nothing left to fear
‘Cause I made it all the way up here

And I climbed so high and I’ll stay up here
With my apple in the sky
So until that day baby I’ll just wait
Till it’s my time
