Apples
Apples are brought in little baskets
Decorating the Troubles I'm facing
Hiding the hiddens of the holder
Tonight, on your table, those apples I'm placing.
Day by day she rises once again
her little children still need her light
Just like the holder needs some rain
I picked those apples for you tonight.
Apples are blown away by the wind every night
They've forgotten, Rebel Children are gone
But I brought you these apples
To decorate your table tonight.
She's the sun, the light
The rain, the tears that make me grow
The tree is the holder and so am I
The children are the apples the wind did not blow
The apples the tree gave me,
The apples the sun fed
The apples I picked,
Are the apples decorating your table tonight.
