Deep In The Woods - Tim O'Brien

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

Repeat chorus
