The Apple and the Strawberry Lyrics

I'm hanging from my tree
Turning red from green
I have not yet been picked
But I have found my queen
I swing and sway and ask
The wind to blow me down
I got my wish, but I landed
Upside down

Still I made it, a little bruised but there
Now I'm blushing, you need the care because you're rare

I haven't always felt this way
Just forever from today

And love is a doll dressed up
Silent as a storm
And though a fire burns inside it
My heart is not that warm
I'm beside you and I know not to ask you anymore
But I will wait until I'm rotten to the core

I'm looking to chase my own daydream
But strawberries only look for cream

I haven't always felt this way
Just forever from today

I haven't always felt this way
Just forever from today

Uncrowned queen, your throne awaits...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
