Lyrics
Out In the Woods
Amanda Bailey says you?re living alone,
Out in the woods
Down past the end of the road,
No one knows just where.
I'll bring provisions come the first of the year.
You?ll need some goods.
I know you?ll persevere.
Watch the snow fall down,
On the frozen ground.
I?ll come and see you on the first day of spring.
You knew that I would.
I?ll bring the good red wine,
We'll laugh and sing.
You'll play your mandolin,
I'll play the guitar,
Out in the woods.
You'll be my evening star.
Why can't you and I,
Make a brand new life?
We'll spend a year among the eagles and deer,
Out in the woods.
We'll make our own peace here,
They'll have no fear.
And all our friends from town can come see our place,
Out in the woods.
We'll have this song to play.
Wonder what they?ll say,
On our weddings day.
In the woods.
