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

Suckle 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 were strong and tall as weeds

Never live forever, there

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 the true you and you, true me

And in your eyes

I’d see the dark inside of you

Woke from dreams

Pulled up like weeds

Never knew no better

There was no such thing

I reached for you like a child that clings

Oh, how we saw in each other, everything

Everything

Everything
