[Verse 1]
The roots are deep below the ground
I like to walk with you in the evening
Up the hill and back down
I watch the mailboat from the clearing

[Refrain]
My mind is so confused
I climb back on top of you

[Chorus]
And I'm changing the ribbon
In this old Underwood
Well step out of your dress
And I'll wear you like a hood
For a hood is a home
For someone who lives alone

[Verse 2]
I draw a line from A to B
And what happens in between
It is an open mystery
As far as I can see

[Refrain]
My mind is so confused
I climb back on top of you
[Chorus]
And I'm changing the ribbon
In this old Underwood
Well step out of your dress
And I'll wear you like a hood
For a hood is a home
For someone who lives alone
