well I was sitting beneath the redwood tree
strumming my guitar so quietly
you sat down next to me and you started to sing
I can’t see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
You grabbed my hand to lift me from the ground
But I slipped on a slug and came tumbling down
The birds laughing was the only sound
They started chirping
Do do do dodododod
I cant see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
Lifted our knees and went on a walk
Humming and whistling and skipping rocks
I cant see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
Took off my shoes and gave them to you
You said lets walk through the creek in our bare feet
I’ll be you and you’ll be me
I want to know what it’s like to be lovely
And the water was rushing
Do dod dodo dod odododod
I cant see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
We fell into love and I scraped my knee
But you had a pack of band aids thankfully
I cant see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
I came to your house we had a hug o war
We were kissing and tugging loving on the floor
When we stopped we played some more
And the night whispered
Do dod odododod
I cant see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
Flying saucer vaporized into the night
We walked to the park you held on tight
Sailed through the sky on a big blue kite
Landed on the moon still hanging on to you
And the space invaders sang
Dododododododd
I cant see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
