There's a tree
out in the back yard
that never has been
broken by the wind
There's a reason
it's still standin'
It was strong enough to bend
For years
we have stayed together
as lovers and as friends
What we have will last forever
if we're strong enough to bend
When you say somethin'
that you can't take back
a big wind blows
and you hear a little crack
When you say
hey well I might be wrong
you can sway with the wind
till the storm is gone
Like a tree out
in the back yard
that never has been
broken by the wind
Our love will last forever
if we're strong enough to bend
When you start thinkin'
that you know it all
a big wind blows
and a branch will fall
When you say
hey this job takes two
We can sway with
the wind till the sky turns blue
Like the tree
out in the back yard
that never has been
broken by the wind
Our love will last forever
if we're strong enough to bend
Our love will last forever
if we're strong enough to bend
