lyrics

make me a raft and then muddy your feet
send me a long and i hope that we'll meet where there's
no one in sight, no sound at night
no need for fright and it's just firelight for me

make me move fast down a current with green
lilypads, shall be a beautiful scene
with a reason to go, if you don't know
watch me i'll show you i've been there before it's the

loveliest landscape
i couldn't tell you where we'll learn to be in the
loveliest landscape
i couldn't tell you so you'll have to see

make me unveil and then join me at seams
i'll sit you down to be closer between us and
trust me for this, we can exist, it is a bliss
full of two when there's no one around

in this landscape
i couldn't tell you where we'll learn to be in the
loveliest landscape
i couldn't tell you so you'll have to see
