PLAY GRIFFITH NANCI Nanci Griffith There S A Light Beyond These Woods video There`s a light beyond these woods Mary Margaret
Do you think that we will go there
And see what makes it shine, Mary Margaret
It`s almost morning and we`ve talked all night
I know we`ve made big plans for 10 year olds
You and I

Have you met my new boyfriend Margaret
His name is John and he rides my bus to school
And he holds my hand - he`s 14 he`s my older man
We`ll still be the best of friends the three of us
Margaret, John and I

Let`s go to New York City Margaret
We`ll hide out in the subways and drink the poets wine,
Oh, but I had John so you went and I stayed behind
But you were home in time for the senior prom
When we lost John

The fantasies we planned well I live without them now,
All the dreams we sang that we knew about
Well they haven`t changed
There`ll never be two friends like you and me
Mary Margaret

It`s nice to see your family growing Margaret
Your daughter and your husband they really treat you right
But we`ve talked all night
Oh, what about those nights
That rode beyond our woods when we were ten
You were the rambler then

The fantasies we planned oh Maggie I live without them now
All the dreams we sang, we damn sure knew how
But I`ll never change
There`ll never be two friends just like you and me
Maggie can`t you see ?
There`s a light beyond your woods Mary Margaret
