Apple Tree

All of my wishes and all my demands

All of my dreams and my best-made plans

Are all set on fire by your two hands

Oh, love, mm

I don't know the difference between love and war

Like smashing a bottle or slamming the door

Like kissing your neck or hearing you sing

Oh, love ruins everything

Oh, love is a weapon, my love

So don't ever question or push me to lessen my love

Busted to pieces, now what do I do?

Tell me you love me, oh, tell me the truth

'Cause I'm like the ocean and you're like the moon

Oh, and love ruins everything, not for you

Mm, mm

Oh, love is a bottomless pit

And because of you, now I'm falling forever in it

Oh, love is a weapon, my love

So don't ever question or push me to lessen my love

Oh, oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

Love ruins everything

Oh, love ruins everything

(Often my thoughts turn back to days of childhood)

(And I can see my simple country home)

(My father and mother, sisters and brothers)

(I never dreamed how far we'd roam)

(But long years have passed, and we have wandered)

(And some now rest within their tombs)

(But oh, I wanna be with that happy household)

(Up there in Heaven beyond this gloom)

(We used to gather around the fireside)

(And the soft light fell on little faces fair)

(And we'd laugh and play and love each other)

(Our hearts were young and free from all care)

(And at night, we'd say our "now I lay me"s)

(And Mom, she'd sweetly tuck us all in bed)

(Yes, I wanna be with that happy family)

(When Jesus wakes us from the dead)

(Gracious, sacred scenes unfold)
