Though it's fearful Though it's deep Though it's dark And though you may lose the path Though you may encounter wolves
You can't just act You have to listen! You can't just act You have to think
There are always wolves There are always spells There are always beans Or a giant dwells there
So, into the woods you go again You have to every now and then Into the woods, no telling when Be ready for the journey
Into the woods, but not too fast Or what you wish, you lose at last Into the woods, but mind the past! Into the woods, but mind the future! Into the woods, but not to stray Or tempt the wolf, or steal from the giant?
The way is dark The light is dim But now there's you, me, her and him The chances look small The choices look grim
But everything you learn there Will help when you return there The light is getting dimmer I think I see a glimmer?
Into the woods? You have to grope But thats the way you learn to cope Into the woods to find there's hope Of getting through the journey
Into the woods, each time you go There's more to learn of what you know Into the woods, but not too slow? Into the woods, it's nearing midnight?
Into the woods to mind the wolf To heed the witch, to honor the giant To mind, to heed, to find, to think, to teach, to join To go to the festival!
Into the woods Into the woods Into the woods Then out of the woods? And happy ever after! I wish
