Big Sky, MT

Meet me where

The sweetgrass dances in the mountain air

Near the old ponderosa pine, I found our future hidden there

With the light on by the door, you can see

A welcome mat is waiting on the porch

Climbing ivy up all the walls and errant tea leaves on the floor

I'll tear it all down if you ask me

Just say the word and hold on tight

I'll build it back up if you ask me

As long as you'll be by my side

On our hill

We watch the hunter string his starry bow

Imagining he's aiming at the dark, fighting for the sun to show

Then the sky becomes a fire, we sit by

Making up a story, taking turns each one word at a time

The morning light cuts through the mountain air like a knife

To carve our names on the old ponderosa pine

I'll tear it all down if you ask me

Just say the word and hold on tight

I'll build it back up if you ask me

Just say the word

I'll tear it all down if you ask me

Just say the word and hold on tight

I'll build it back up if you ask me

As long as you'll be by my side

Come the day the old pine falls beneath the weight of the centuries

With a reverence I hardly understand, I'll kneel down by that mighty tree

And salvage where the sun carved our names

And make it into a table, we can gather 'round

We'll take a seat and feast on memories of the ivy climbing up all the walls

And errant tea leaves on the ground

I'll tear it all down if you ask me

Just say the word and hold on tight

I'll build it back up if you ask me

Just say the word

I'll tear it all down if you ask me

Just say the word and hold on tight

I'll build it back up if you ask me

As long as you'll be by my side

As long as you'll be by my side
