  3. Wife: You've changed. You're daring.
  4. You're different in the woods.
  5. More sure. More sharing.
  6. You're getting us through the woods.
  7. If you could see--
  8. You're not the man who started,
  9. And much more open-hearted
  10. Than I knew you to be.
  11. Baker: It takes two.
  12. I thought one was enough,
  13. It's not true:
  14. It takes two of us.
  15. You came through
  16. When the journey was rough.
  17. It took you.
  18. It took two of us.
  19. It takes care,
  20. It takes patience and fear and despair
  21. To change.
  22. Though you swear to change,
  23. Who can tell if you do?
  24. It takes two.
  25. Wife: You've changed.
  26. You're thriving.
  27. There's something about the woods.
  28. Not just surviving,
  29. You're blossoming in the woods.
  30. At home I'd fear
  31. We'd stay the same forever.
  32. And then out here
  33. You're passionate, charming, considerate, clever--
  34. Baker: It takes one
  35. To begin, but then once you've begun,
  36. It takes two of you.
  37. It's no fun,
  38. But what needs to be done
  39. You can do
  40. When there's two of you.
  41. If I dare,
  42. It's because I'm becoming aware of us
  43. As a pair of us,
  44. Each accepting a share
  45. Of what's there.
  46. Both: We've changed.
  47. We're strangers.
  48. I'm meeting you in the woods.
  49. Who minds
  50. What dangers?

  52. And once we're past,
  53. Let's hope the changes last
  54. Beyond woods,
  55. Beyond witches and slippers and hoods,
  56. Just the two of us--
  57. Beyond lies,
  58. Safe at home with our beautiful prize,
  59. Just the few of us.
  60. It takes trust.
  61. It takes just a bit more and we're done.
  62. We want four, we had none. We've got three.
  63. We need one.
  64. It takes two.
