Apple a Day - David Wilcox

Thank God, life’s uncertain

Thank God we get so scared

Can’t see behind God’s curtain

This world seems so unfair

Imagine life the other way

Picture-perfect every day

Indoor weather makes this blue sky stay

So they say: Vacation in Eden

Bring an apple a day

This climb, makes us stumble

Ten million ways to fall

Our childish faith will crumble

This world will break us all

Imagine life the other way

A cozy fishbowl on display

With no chance that we might drift astray

So we say: Vacation in Eden

Bring an apple a day

When you get there life is easy

Winning every game you play

But every day is just the same

Nothing lost and nothing gained

Same old re-run on some child-proof stage

So they say: Vacation in Eden

Bring an apple a day

In the land of childish wonder

Climb the fence and run away

Pretty to visit, but it’s hell to stay

Vacation in Eden

Bring an apple a day
