Apple Tree
Yearning Under the Apple Tree
Lyrics
Sitting on the porch in the summertime as the storms roll in
Sitting on the porch in anticipation of approaching storms during summertime.
I feel a cool breeze blowing, I feel it on my skin
Sensing a refreshing breeze touching the skin.
cnd as I sit here waiting, watching that Tennessee rain
Waiting and observing the rain in Tennessee.
I know that all this waiting won't have been done in vain
Expressing confidence that the waiting will be worthwhile.
I know you're out there somewhere, all I want you to do is sweep me off my feet
Believing the person is somewhere and desiring to be swept off one's feet by them.
cll I want you to do is come home to me
Expressing a desire for the person to come home.
Where I want you to be is underneath the apple tree
Wishing the person to be together under an apple tree.
cll I want you to say is that you love me
Requesting verbal affirmation of love from the person.
cll I want you to do is come home to me
Reiterating the desire for the person to return home.
Listen to the leaves blowing in the wind as the sun heats up
Listening to leaves rustling in the wind and feeling the sun's heat.
It's gonna be a hot one today feels like we might burn up
Anticipating a hot day, expressing concern about potential discomfort.
Counting cars on the highway, I'm only up to two
Counting passing cars on the highway, currently at two.
I wish the next Chevy on 61 is gonna be you
Expressing a wish for the next car to be the person's Chevy on Highway 61.
I know you're out there somewhere, all I want you to do is sweep me off my feet
Reiterating the belief that the person is out there, desiring to be swept off one's feet.
cll I want you to do is come home to me
Expressing the desire for the person to come home once again.
Where I want you to be is underneath the apple tree
Desiring to be together under an apple tree as a specific location.
cll I want you to say is that you love me
Requesting the person to verbally affirm their love.
cll I want you to do is come home to me
Reiterating the desire for the person to return home.
