Lyrics: Anything For You

My ancestors planted some sequoias by a road
I've driven down that road since i was born
Oh, never have you ever seen
So many perfect evergreens
But i would chop them all down just for you

I have walked a million miles in a hundred pairs of shoes
In search of some universal truth
Well, a deity just came to me
And handed me a scroll to read
And i will gladly pass it on to you

Anything for you
All of this is true
But the best story that i could ever tell
Is the one where i am growing old with you

I was having rotten luck and nothing went my way
'til i stumbled on a clearing in the woods
I found a town of leprechauns
And grabbed each one for wishing on
But i would let them all go just for you

I have crossed a natural plane and communed with the dead
But people always seem to want some proof
No one even would believe, my love,
That evil i got pictures of
But i would throw them all out just for you

Anything for you
All of this is true
But the best story that i could ever tell
Is the one where i am growing old with you

My scar is from a polar bear, my curse is from a witch
I've caught a giant squid in all the seven seas
I've picked up rocks from distant moons
Astronomers will discover soon
But i would give them all back just for you

I've gotten drunk and shot the breeze with kings of far-off lands
They showed me wealth as far as i could see
But their kingdoms seemed all shrivelly
And they cried out with jealousy
When i leaned in and told them about you

I'd give up anything
Anything for you
I'd give it all
All of this is true
But the best story that i could ever tell
Is the one where i am growing old with you

All i've ever wanted, see, was to tell you honestly
I'd do anything for you
I'd do absolutely anything for you.
