Episode Synopsis

Remember our first night in this farmhouse, No furniture or food
The Chardonnay, my old bedroll and sleeping in til noon
What happened to that feeling of loving so carefree?
We might have never got it back if it wasn’t for that old oak tree
That took out the power lines put us in the dark, so we could see the light

[Chorus]
You and me for three whole days
Camped out by the fireplace
Scattered clothes across the floor
One sleeping bag to keep us warm
Drinking wine from coffee cups
Remembering how we fell in love
And making brand new memories
Thanks to that old oak tree

[Verse 2]
It took a week to cut that hardwood up
And stack it by the house
Now there are no excuses left to let this flame die out
Was that storm that took her down, a sign we need a change
I'm not willing to assume this feeling will remain
Let's call in sick on Fridays now and then
So that old oak tree can heat us up again
And again

[Chorus]
It'll be you and me for three whole days
Camped out by the fireplace
Scattered clothes across the floor
One sleeping bag to keep us warm
Drinking wine from coffee cups
Remembering how we fell in love
And making brand new memories
Thanks to that old oak tree

[Bridge]
No TV or radio to distract us
Getting back to where we were, might take a lot of practice

[Chorus]
You and me for three whole days
Camped out by the fireplace
Scattered clothes across the floor
One sleeping bag to keep us warm
Drinking wine from coffee cups
Remembering how we fell in love
And making brand new memories
Thanks to that old oak tree
That old oak tree
