The Wood
Journey Through Nature's Harmony
Lyrics
There's a place we go it's not so far

Friends are all around

Some are tall and some push down

Deep into the ground

We are visitors we don't stay long

Compared to ancient neighbours

But we like it there and feel so strong
Expressing the enjoyment and strength felt in that place.
Certain and courageous

Take me down to the wood and I'll sing you a love song
Desire to be taken to the woods to express love through song.
Take me down to the wood tonight

I knew someone, she was never wrong

Like a fool I tried to change her

She danced with me round a Devon tree

And soon I was in danger

Take me down to the wood tonight

Take me down to the wood tonight

Leaves and branches block my view

Walking down this avenue
Walking down a path with an unclear destination.
Where every destination is unclear
Expressing uncertainty about the future and a commitment to living in the present.
And I will make my living here
Declaring an intention to make a living in the current situation.
Though I've heard of open fields and spaces where the water meets the sky

So I'll take my bow and my old guitar

And I'll play for Mother Nature

When the winds of time blow far
Facing the challenges of time and expressing a willingness to return.
I'll return to end my days here

Take me down to the wood and I'll sing you a love song

Take me down to the wood tonight
