lyrics

Last night we watched a pair under sweet apple trees
promise their love to each other
We drank wine from Mason jars
danced in the grass under the stars
huddled close when the cool night air came
and I slept with a smile on my face

Thinking maybe You know
every want that I'm wanting
and maybe You care
about all my little cares
and what if it's true
that You knit me together
and every crease of my heart feels Your touch
how could anyone love me so much?

But sometimes these summer Oregon evenings
when the sun burns the apple trees gold
are so God-blessed beautiful
it hurts my heart to behold
so tell me Lord what can I do?
When my heart aches, Lord, what can I do?

But maybe You know
every want that I'm wanting
and maybe You care
about all my little cares
and what if it's true
that You knit me together
and every crease of my heart feels Your touch
how could anyone love me so much?

But if summer is just an inkling of Heaven
then I can put my sorry heart to rest
and all that I can do is pound my piano
and try to write a song worthy of You
and try to write a song worthy of You

Because I think You know
every want that I'm wanting
and I think You care
about all my little cares
and I think it's true
that You knit me together
and every sun-laden soul feels Your touch
how could anyone love us so much?
How could anyone love us so much?
How could anyone but You
love us so much?
