Here are the lyrics:

turn the lamp down low
let it burn out so slow
let the moon stay hidden
between the leaves of the trees
let the clock keep ticking
with hands a-frozen
and let us stay here now in the light of kerosene
and let us stay here now in our own backcountry

and let us stay so long
and we won't go home
and we'll be where we belong
and we'll both play along

oh let the fire grow old
and the embers glow cold
let the wind sneak in
and blow us closer within
and let the quiet seep in
let it show us where we've been
and let us stay here now far ahead as we can see
and let us stay here now in our own backcountry

and the air is so clear
the first stars disappear
and as the morning draws near
will you still be right here

and let us stay so long
and we won't go home
this is where we belong
and we'll both play along

and let us stay so long
and we won't go home
and we'll be where we belong
this is where we belong
and we'll both play along
if we both play along
