Katrina Carlson - Apples For Eve lyrics

Father, I'm in certain danger of being everything you despise Mother, I've locked hearts with a stranger And I can't wash him out of my eyes So many years I was afraid Fighting back tears while I obeyed 'Cause I was so eager then to please Ignoring the sweetness in the tree Denying destiny The fruit within my reach Apples for Eve Father, I've a growing hunger burning crimson inside of me What would happen then, I wonder, if I tasted the colors I see So many years left in the dark Fighting back tears for fear they'd spark 'Cause I was so eager then to please Ignoring the sweetness in the tree Denying destiny The fruit within my reach Apples for Eve Show me, touch me, love me freely And don't stop 'til I've had enough Take me to the East and leave me I would rather toil in the rough I can stand tall or take a fall I can give in or risk it all I can choose who and how I please 'Cause I know the truth about the tree I know my destiny The fruit within my reach Apples for Eve Apples for Eve
