Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mean to meet behind the barn in five
I'll be waiting with a sweet surprise
Oooh...
Folks might wonder where we've wandered to
Might be doing things we ain't' supposed to do
I just want to spend some time alone with you
Oooh...

Maybe tomorrow we can go for a ride
In the country sitting side by side
I've got some things that I'd like to confide
