Baked Apples
When I was a young girl
You lifted me high
Higher than I've ever been
You wiped off my tears
But allowed me to cry
Made me comfortable in my own skin
Baked apples and elephants
Your hands on my shoulders
I stood on my toes so you'd reach me
I wish you were here
Now that I am much older
There's so much I know you could teach me
About life
About life
About life
About life
You taught me to read
While you soothed me to sleep
Rubbed my back when I'm scared of the dark
No matter the nightmare
You chased it away
Kept the monsters from stealing my spark
I look to the ceiling, pretend that it's you
And suspend disbelief for a minute
And when I feel lost, and don't know what to do
I look to my heart cuz you're in it
For life
For life
For life
For life
And when I think of you I cry
And when I think of you it's like I'm saying goodbye for the millionth time
And when I think of you I smile
And when I think of you it's like you're here with me for a little while longer
For life
For life
For life
For life
When I was a young girl
You lifted me high
Higher than I've ever been
You lifted me high
Higher than I've ever been
You wiped off my tears
But allowed me to cry
Made me comfortable in my own skin
Baked apples and elephants
Your hands on my shoulders
I stood on my toes so you'd reach me
I wish you were here
Now that I am much older
There's so much I know you could teach me
About life
About life
About life
About life
You taught me to read
While you soothed me to sleep
Rubbed my back when I'm scared of the dark
No matter the nightmare
You chased it away
Kept the monsters from stealing my spark
I look to the ceiling, pretend that it's you
And suspend disbelief for a minute
And when I feel lost, and don't know what to do
I look to my heart cuz you're in it
For life
For life
For life
For life
And when I think of you I cry
And when I think of you it's like I'm saying goodbye for the millionth time
And when I think of you I smile
And when I think of you it's like you're here with me for a little while longer
For life
For life
For life
For life
When I was a young girl
You lifted me high
Higher than I've ever been
