There's a light beyond these woods

Mary Margaret

Do you think that we will go there

And see what makes it shine

Mary Margaret

It's almost morning

And we've talked all night

You know we've made big plans for ten-year olds

You and I

Have you met my new boy friend

Margaret

His name is John and he rides my bus to school

And he holds my hand

He's fourteen he's my older man

But we'll still be the best of friends

The three of us Margaret John and I

Let's go to New York City Margaret

We'll hide out in the subways

And drink the poets wine oh

But I had John

So you went and I stayed behind

But you were home in time for the senior prom

When we lost John

The fantasies we plan

I'm living them now

All the dreams we sang when we knew how

Well they haven't changed

There's never been two friends like you and me

Mary Margaret

It's nice to see your family growing Margaret

Your daughter and your husband there

They really treat you right

But we've talked all night

And what about the light that glowed beyond

Our woods when we were ten

You were the rambler then

The fantasies we planned well Maggie

I'm living them now

All the dreams we sang oh we damn sure knew

How but I haven't changed

There'll never be two friends like you and me

Maggie can't you see

There's a light beyond your woods Mary Margaret
