[Intro: Milhouse Van Houten from The Simpsons]
Oh, I hate these flood pants. Hey, they're working! My feet are soaked, but my cuffs are bone dry. Everything is coming up Milhouse!
[Chorus]
I didn't know I was lost till I found you
Didn't know I was lost till I found myself
Didn't know I was gone till I struggled
To pull myself up these West Virginia rocks
Didn't know I was in love
Till I saw your face lit up in the flames
We shivered, facing the fire
That kept us warm for five whole days
[Verse 1]
My ankles rolled and toiled and dragged up the rocky path ahead
Torrential downpour often enough to convince us to enjoy our dirt bеds
A simple layer of fabric, a couple polеs and Velcro strips
Ten kids with nothing in common abandoned in the Maryland wilderness
[Verse 2]
Last leg of our hike
Convince me I've seen every shade of green
Me deep in the trenches
20 Bliss, they're burning, broken feet
We'll bit our tongues and knocked on wood
Grit our teeth and [?]
But you placed the trail
Long blonde hair and a sharp and burning wig
[Bridge]
Why would you slow down for me?
What made me so interesting?
I hope I never run dry
Of whatever quality
Convinced you to smile at me
Told me all your hopes and dreams
All of your aspirations
I hope they include me
[Outro]
I didn't know I was lost till I found you
(Why would you slow down for me?)
Didn't know I was lost till I found myself
(What made me so interesting?)
Didn't know I was gone till I struggled
(I hope I never run dry)
To pull myself up these West Virginia rocks
(Of whatever quality)
Didn't know I was in love
(Convinced you to smile at me)
Till I saw your face lit up in the flames
(Told me all your hopes and dreams)
We shivered, facing the fire
(All of your aspirations)
That kept us warm for five whole days
(I hope they include me)
