A Forest Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes

And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again
[Instrumental Outro]
