Lazy afternoon strolls
Make for her howls at the trees
Going home with trouble
Written in dirt on her knees
There's nowhere else to be
Off into the long grass
I want her to drag me away
Every single footpath
That I ever try and take
She'll circumnavigate
They pass us by and we're just out of view
Yeah, they don't have a clue
They're in ones, they're in twos
(They're in sensible shoes)
They're in purple cagoules
She'll jump in the river
You'll wish you're the water
And like no one else could
She does the woods
Her face is made for daylight
Ought to be out of the house
You'd do the moon and back twice easy
Just to kiss half of her mouth
She's what it's all about
They pass us by and we're just out of view
They don't have a clue
They're in ones, they're in twos
(They're in sensible shoes)
They're in purple cagoules
She'll jump in the river
You'll wish you're the water
And like no one else could
She does the woods
She turns my back to the earth and shows me that's where I'm meant to be
I hear the chirps from the birds as if they heard somebody coming
I see her lit from behind looking down on me
In front of a natural tapestry
That's like a Spirograph of branches that dance on the breeze
She'll jump in the river
You'll wish you're the water
She'll jump in the river
You'll wish you're the water
And like no one else could
(She does the woods)
