There's a tree out in the backyard That never has been broken by the wind And the reason its still standing 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 something that you can't take back 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 Sway with the wind till the storm is gone
Like a tree out in the backyard 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 Big wind blows and a branch will fall When you say "Hey this job takes two" We can sway with the wind till the skies turn blue Sway with the wind till the skies turn blue
Like a tree out in the backyard That never has been broken by the wind Our love will last forever if we're strong enough to bend
