Far away in a great northern forest There’s a place where I once loved to dwell And it feels like my poor heart is breaking For the girl that I used to love so well Now the years flying by just like an eagle And it’s casting a shadow down below My memory is piercing like a needle And I know that I got nowhere left to go If I ever made it back to our cabin Well that’s where I’d want to be forever more When I die you can lay me there beside her Where the vines have covered up the door So take me back to the woods where she left me Let me walk through them hills all alone Where your love still wanders through the valley And the vines have covered up our cabin home
