Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song after a long night of listening to aggressive and drunk English tourists shouting in a hostel dorm in Hobart, Tasmania during a tour. I decided to channel all my frustration at those guys into a song of the exact opposite, an unrelenting love.

Lyrics
Out in the forest
Under a tree
Lies a dream
That You once told to me
And out in the desert
Under a stone
Lies a poem
That You once wrote to me
And baby would You marry me
Under an apple tree
Or the bottom of the sea
Or maybe on a train to spain
Or some nice place like that
And baby would You marry me
On a mountain top
Or a traffic stop
Or maybe on a boat
That floats
Into the great unknown
It would be a day to remember our love by
And out in the ocean
Under a fish
Lies a kiss
That You once blew to me
And up in the sky
Under a schroud
Made of clouds
Is all You mean to me
