I Packed that Subaru, that guitar, suitcase and drove to you
And I hit Canada before the clock hit noon
I'm Going where the pines stand a little taller
Get out of the car feel a little bit smaller
Than I usually do
I'm going where the stars shine a little brighter
I can sing my songs just a little bit quieter
To you
Look at me, you've stripped me of my ego
Not wearing makeup, sitting in a flannel
You've only got 3 damn channels
In this cabin in the woods
But I think that it's good for me
Just like I know that you are good for me
Cause I've never been so happy
In my whole life
And I've always laughed at the thought
Of being anybody's wife
But something about you
Is changing something about me
I could stay here with you-
And still feel free
You're a man of few words
And I just can't quit talking
I sit here with my books
And you go out walkin through the woods
And when you come back inside
You shake the snow out of your hair
I look up at your face
And you say “it sure is cold out there
And You come and kiss my cheek
And tell me to stay right where I am
You're going to cook me dinner
Do I want venison or ham
And I've never been more happy
In my whole life
I've never given much thought to being anybody's wife
But something about you is changing something about me
I could stay here with you, and still feel free
Black against the cobalt
The sun has just gone down
The silver moon lights your face
I can see your weary frown
And you pull me in against you
And you warm my fingers against the cold
And say, “please let me be your man
Before I get too old.”
Cause I've never been more happy in my whole life
And I've never found a woman I ever wanted to make my wife
But something about you is changing something about me
I could stay here with you
And still feel free
I Packed that Subaru, that guitar, suitcase and drove to you
And I hit Canada before the clock hit noon
