C Mead, C Scruggs

We used to be so happy we used to be so true
We used to think there wasn't anything we couldn't do
But they could see right through us we didn't seem to care
We were on a highway that ain't going anywhere
They told us we were wrong a thousand times
We rode out to the country and got tangled in the pines

We tried to take it slowly we tried to understand
That we'd be on a one way trip if things got out of hand
We lost our direction you could say we lost our touch
Now all of those petty things don't seem to matter much
I can take your blame if you take mine
We rode out to the country and got
tangled in the pines

Now we're lost forever along the roadway side
But I can't say I'm sorry that we took that foolish ride
We couldn't get along at all no we just disagreed
You drove me to the point where I just drove into the trees
I guess we should have seen the warning signs
When we drove out to the country and got tangled in the pines
