on a planet not so far away
in the beginning there was just you and me
suckle on the honey of the tennessee
i smile at you and you to me
i see the moon shine in your eyes
we were strong and tall as weeds
we knew no fear as we grew the years
on this planet not so far away
we wouldn't stay together
like honeysuckle tangled up in kudzu vine
the snake that lay in the sun
i saw the true you and you
i'd see the dark inside of you
i reached for you like a child that clings
