Wide open - The Minnesota summer sky
On and on - The rows of corn in late July
That's how I want to love you
That's how I want to love you
Down deep - The sand, the soil, the rock below
Overflowing - the harvest rushing up the silo
That's how I want to love you
That's how I want to love you
Holding back doesn't suit us well
I can tell, we've been thinking small
Keeping things to ourselves
Building walls – I'd rather watch them fall
Wild and unruly – rye grass tangled in the aster blooms
Long and winding – the miles of green this creek runs through
That's how I want to love you
That's how I want to love you
Holding back doesn't suit us well
I can tell, we've been thinking small
Keeping things to ourselves
Building walls – I'd rather watch them fall
Give me an unobstructed view
Take in every last inch of you
I remember, do you remember
When time and energy weren't such commodities
I know you're tired cause baby I am tired
But I'd like to try for better, for bigger, for more
Slow and lazy - Front porch swing your hand in mine
Nice and easy – the robin sings as the clouds roll by
That's how I want to love you
That's how I want to love you
