The Hunter and the Deer

By Millie French
Verse 1
It dawned on me, you and me weren’t going anywhere
I was just the girl you called when you had too much beer
Telling me whatever you thought I wanted to hear
Until you looked me in the eye, made your intentions clear
Told me you’ll always be the hunter... and I’ll be the deer

Chorus
This little deer is not getting into your woods tonight
Is tired of being the shining eyes in your headlights
No more waiting by the phone for your midnight chase
I’m erasing every footprint we made in this place

Verse 2
You liked the thrill of the hunt, the games you used to play
Every time luring me back in, just to push me away
But you can’t keep my heart like a trophy on your wall
And I'm not gonna be around the next time that you call
You thought I'd stay forever frozen in your headlights
But I’m hanging out in different parts of the woods tonight

Chorus repeat
This little deer is not getting into your woods tonight
Is tired of being the shining eyes in your headlights
No more waiting by the phone for your midnight chase
I’m erasing every footprint we made in this place

Outro
So put away your rifle, you won’t shoot me tonight
Yeah, this little deer is finally out of your sight
Out of your woods
Out of your sight
