Down in the Woods Songtext
von Malcolm Holcombe

Down in the Woods

way down in the woods
far from the highways
away from the moments
unoticed and gone

way down in the woods
touchin′ moss so soft
on the deadwood dyin'
in time′s fertile arms

thank God for the stars
each one in the heavens
thank God where you are
and your travelin' steps

way down in the woods
i will go for my rest
way down in the woods
i will go


way down in the woods
the dogwoods survive
round the blades of the briars
and virgina pines

way down in the woods
the ivy lays sleepin'
patiently waitin′
for sunlight to find

way down in the woods
the wind knows the way
to carry the voices
sweet angels have made

way down in the woods
walkin′ close to my heart
turn loose o' my tongue
and thank God for the stars.
