You and me out in the dark lookin' for shadows
|
Saturday night, a little too young to take good care
|
A little too wild, a little too old to get lost in the woods
|
|
A gravel road fadin' away back in the darkness
|
Two tire tracks, just one thing on my mind
|
Makin' me blind, that's holdn' you close, deep in the woods
|
|
Chorus
|
Once the stream ran clear down to the river
|
Once the tall, tall pines covered the sky
|
Your sweet sigh was all it took to cover the silence
|
I can't remember any love half as good
|
No, nothin' as good as you and me deep in the woods
|
|
I remember the day you moved away back to the city
|
Somebody said your daddy's in debt, sellin' his land
|
Here comes a man and he's got a plan
|
For the place in the woods
|
|
Drivin' around this little town everything changes
|
Every day they haul away a little bit more
|
You can be sure there's nothin' left of our place in the woods
|
|
Repeat chorus
|
