We built a little fire and then we took off our clothes
In our bare feet stamping and chanting at the top of our lungs
I swear I saw you staring concealing your thoughts in the trees
Did they come here for lessons or maybe for something to eat
I know I wanna lay sideways
When I'm closer to you
I know I wanna lay sideways
Won't you please let me through
Let me through
I found a new reason, a reason to take you along
We can scare all the black bears away, they could leave us alone
And they don't care about opinion they 'd rather show you motherly love
Turned violent from threatened, protection of innocent cubs
I know I wanna lay sideways
When I'm closer to you
I know I wanna lay sideways
Won't you please let me through
Let me through
We walked avoiding darkness, immense by the critters
She called it "following the leader" and stuck me front and centre
With dip in the river and you saw me kinda shiver
When you nuzzled up beside me you asked me "what's the matter?"
I heard she went to prison, I heard she got caught by the Feds
She broke my heart in one summer and it took two summers to mend
And I know she wasn't worth it, to benefit desertion at all
But you asked a loaded question and you can't always get what you want
I know I wanna lay sideways
When I'm closer to you
I know I wanna lay sideways
Won't you please let me through
Let me through
I know I wanna lay sideways
Sideways in truth
Won't you please let me through
Let me through
