Great Lakes Myth Society - Days of Apple Pie lyrics

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
