Underneath the lilac tree, I close my eyes and suddenly

I'm ten years old and running through, An open field chasing after you

Sounds of summer fill my ears, If I live 10,000 years

I'll never feel as good as this, Moments before our first kiss

There is nothing to demand, No algebra to understand

Just sunlight on a freckled face

And everything in its right place

Simple things turn magical, Minutes freeze like Popsicles

And drip their seconds down our shirts, I love you so much it hurts

There's no such thing as real time, I've been yours and you've been mine

And we've lived ever happily, Everywhere I've been you've been with me

There is nothing to control, No question mark left on our souls

Just sunlight on a freckled face

There is nothing to demand, No politics to understand

Just sunlight on a freckled face

Everything in its right place

Everything in its right place

(Arpeggiating)

And I want to give you a brand new sky

 Something so open, it brings tears to your eyes

 So clear and so present, it doesn't seem real

 I want to show you how you make me feel

I want to give you a brand new dream

 Where two horses drink from a silver stream

 As the trees catch fire they lift their heads

 And bolt together through the forest across our beds

I want to bring you the fields of flowers

 I want to build you Eiffel Towers

 Take the clouds in the evening, turn 'em into stars

 And drop 'em like keys through your prison bars

Set you free, yeah
