My ancestors planted some sequoias by a road
|
I've driven down that road since I was born
|
Oh, never have you ever seen so many perfect evergreens
|
But I would chop them all down just for you
|
|
I have walked a million miles in a hundred pairs of shoes
|
In search of some universal truth
|
Well a deity just came to me and handed me a scroll to read
|
And I will gladly pass it on to you.
|
|
Anything for you
|
All of this is true
|
But the best story that I could ever tell
|
Is the one where I am growing old with you.
|
|
I was having rotten luck and nothing went my way
|
'Til I stumbled on a clearing in the woods.
|
I found a town of leprechauns and grabbed each one for wishing on
|
But I would let them all go just for you.
|
|
I have crossed a natural plane and communed with the dead
|
But people always seem to want some proof.
|
No one even would believe, my love, that evil I got pictures of
|
But I would throw them all out just for you.
|
|
Anything for you
|
All of this is true
|
|
But the best story that I could ever tell
|
Is the one where I am growing old with you
|
|
My scar is from a polar bear, my curse is from a witch,
|
I've caught a giant squid in all the seven seas.
|
I've picked up rocks from distant moons astronomers will discover soon
|
But I would give them all back just for you.
|
|
I've gotten drunk and shot the breeze with kings of far off lands
|
They showed me wealth as far as I could see.
|
But their kingdoms seemed all shrivelly and they cried with jealousy
|
When I leaned in and told them about you.
|
|
I'd give up anything
|
(Anything for you)
|
I'd give it all
|
(All of this is true)
|
But the best story that I could ever tell
|
Is the one where I am growing old with you.
|
|
All I've ever wanted, see, was to tell you honestly
|
I'd do anything for you.
|
I'd do absolutely anything for you.
