Though it's fearful
Though it's deep
Though it's dark
And though you may lose the path
Though you may encounter wolves
You can't just act
You have to listen!
You can't just act
You have to think
There are always wolves
There are always spells
There are always beans
Or a giant dwells there
So, into the woods you go again
You have to every now and then
Into the woods, no telling when
Be ready for the journey
Into the woods, but not too fast
Or what you wish, you lose at last
Into the woods, but mind the past!
Into the woods, but mind the future!
Into the woods, but not to stray
Or tempt the wolf, or steal from the giant?
The way is dark
The light is dim
But now there's you, me, her and him
The chances look small
The choices look grim
But everything you learn there
Will help when you return there
The light is getting dimmer
I think I see a glimmer?
Into the woods?
You have to grope
But thats the way you learn to cope
Into the woods to find there's hope
Of getting through the journey
Into the woods, each time you go
There's more to learn of what you know
Into the woods, but not too slow?
Into the woods, it's nearing midnight?
Into the woods to mind the wolf
To heed the witch, to honor the giant
To mind, to heed, to find, to think, to teach, to join
To go to the festival!
Into the woods
Into the woods
Into the woods
Then out of the woods?
And happy ever after!
I wish
