A Walk In The Woods
3:26
A reflective folk song with flute solo (played by Scott on a MIDI keyboard) that celebrates the positive aspects of going for a walk in the woods, with bongos that keep the pace of a guy and his dog reflecting on what’s important while experiencing wild nature.
"A Walk In The Woods"
Written by Scott CooleyWhat could be more wonderful than a walk in the woods
Blazing trails of unknown adventure
With my faithful, four-legged friend by my side
Roaming and exploring the wild together
What could be more wonderful than a walk in the woods
With all the new discoveries that await us
Treasures to be found up in branches and under ground
And scary sounds that only make us more courageous
A reminder of what’s important
A time to be reflective
Pathfinding and unwinding
Putting progress in perspective
What could be more wonderful than a walk in the woods
Wondering what life was like long ago
They had love and struggle, happiness and trouble
More natural beauty than we will ever know
Centuries of health and sickness
Survival of the fittest
Harmonious existence
Paths of least resistance
What could be more wonderful than a walk in the woods
Weighing the advantages, assessing the damages
Taking only what we need, staving off the greed
We’ve come a long way from wolves and savages
What could be more wonderful than a walk in the woods
To free your mind, soothe your soul, and do your body good
