Lyrics
Somewhere far from here, there lived a man in the world. Well he lived by his lonesome in a hole in the ground. No heat, no light, and no girl. He?d been waiting for some time contemplating why, what am I doing here? When will I die? The only thing he ever had, had to get by, was his thoughts. When you live on bread and termite juice, it?s kind of hard to find a girl that thinks like you. He imagines in his world a girl that?s true and he turns his dirt sky to blue. He sees her pretty face and warm open arms, telling him everything will be just fine, she says she loves him, he loves her too, and over some wine, well he says to Boo,
Chorus
This is what I had in mind foreverytime, with you.
This is what I had in mind foreverytime, with you.
So he closes his eyes just to see her face and he hugs his pillow in his bed. He stirs himself to roust again, but why? What for? Sleep instead. Cause there?s no girl in the whole wide world that would want to be with me. So he lays back down and he goes to sleep, cause this is where she?ll be, he says,
Chorus
So he gathers his courage and he walks outside to the bright and beautiful day. He gets a warm breeze across his little hermit face, ties his shoes and makes his way. Just down the path between the forest and the corn lays a road and a treacherous wreck. And laying in the car, yes sprawled on the horn, was a girl, on her back. She said please, please, I need some help! It?s hard to breathe and I can?t see so well. Help me, help me, if anybody can? Turns out he was a hero this man.
Chorus
So he helps her out and he carries her back to his little hole in the ground. She lifts her head and looks at him, not a word or sound. Just then a smile came across her face, and he seemed to want to smile too. And what happened after that, a warm embrace. Well he said to Boo,
Chorus
This is what I had in mind. This is what I had in mind. With you. With you. With you????.
