Back in the wood where it's good and the days are yeah long

Well I saw me a child, she was wild like a lady going all wrong
A# D# D#sus4 D#
Dark as the night, she was right for a little conversation

So I pulled her right in and she said she had some imagination

We didn't speak, felt weak, got tangled up in her hair

Then around the world I would go like jumping on a jet plane
