In a town by all the birch trees Where my love said there'd be fallen leaves It's a distance we can travel It involves no parting of the seas It's a cabin on a lakeside and it's empty Take the road along the lakeside Hang a left before the great divide Hope we get there after nightfall So we'll have nowhere to wait and hide Till tomorrow, till tomorrow It'll look just the same In the cabin with the birch trees We'll uncover all our fantasies It's a distance we can travel To forget the thickening unease Let us leave here Let us go there where it's waiting We will find the path to go there When we get close, breathe the open air I'll play mom and you play daddy And we'll ruin us beyond repair At the cabin on the lakeside If we take things too far Hold on For a little longer
