| On a planet not so far away
|
| We were born together
|
| In the beginning, there was just you and me
|
| Where we was washed up, upon this river
|
| Suckled on the honey of the Tennessee
|
| Where we would sleep in the soft sunshine
|
| I smile at you and you to me
|
| And in the dark, I see the moon
|
| Shine in your eyes
|
| We grew strong and tall as weeds
|
| Never live forever, there were no such thing
|
| I looked at you, and you looked into me
|
| And we saw in each other, everything
|
| We knew no fear, as we grew the years
|
| That’s the growing up
|
| We’ve come to love
|
| On this planet not so far away
|
| We wouldn’t stay together
|
| Rolling in a dream
|
| We’d drift apart, on down the stream
|
| Like honeysuckle tangled up in kudzu vine
|
| The snake that lay in the sun, so fine
|
| I saw true you, and you, true me
|
| And in your eyes
|
| I’d see the dark inside of you
|
| Woke from dream
|
| Pulled up like weed
|
| Never knew no better, there were no such thing
|
| I reached for you, like a child that cling
|
| Oh, how we saw in each other, everything
|
| Everything
|
| Everything |
