Days of Apple Pie

I took a walk into the pines
I left a million trees behind
They closed the hill i used to climb
Here's my reward

Back in the days of apple pie
I'd lie along the mountainside
I'd watch the black flies fill the sky
Here's my reward

I found a friend one summer night
She'd lay her head down next to mine
We'd send the whippoorwills a flight
Here's my reward
Gray homes and endless highways

Down in the maple grove,
Ten times sweeter than the world above
