Jonathon Appleton lyrics

I met this boy he's a country boy

he had blue eyes blonde hair reminded me of

a man I had not too long ago

a man I used to know

His words were short but they left a mark

he said whatcha doing out here young girl

won't you come with me I will marry you

won't you come with me tonight

In a forest cross the river

over mountains and the sea

through the pastures and the fields of green

I'll take you home with me

His name was Jonathon Appleton

he wore a leather vest and a hat

didn't talk much but I knew I had

to join him on his journey

His words were short but they lingered long

he said whatcha doing out here sweet one

won't you come with me I will marry you

won't you come with me tonight

In a forest cross the river

over mountains and the sea

through the pastures and the fields of green

I'll take you home with me

He swept me off my weakest foot

danced with me like a man should

he said wontcha come back home tonight with me

and my mind went blank I just stared right back

maybe this was who my whole life I'd lacked

he said I'm gonna take you where you've never been before

In a forest cross the river

over mountains and the sea

through the pastures and the fields of green

I'll take you home with me

In a forest cross the river

over mountains and the sea

through the pastures and the fields of green

I'll take you home with me
