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 

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 

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
