Green Grass
Lay your head where my heart used to beHold the earth above meLay down in the green grassRemember when you loved me
Come closer don’t be shyStand beneath a rainy skyThe moon is over the riseThink of me as a train goes by
Clear the thistles and bramblesWhistle ‘Didn’t He Ramble’Now there’s a bubble of meand it’s floating in thee
Stand in the shade of meThings are now made of meThe weather vane will say:It smells like rain today
God took the stars and he tossed ‘emCan’t tell the birds from the blossomsYou’ll never be free of meHe’ll make a tree from me
Don’t say good bye to meDescribe the sky to meAnd if the sky falls, mark my wordswe’ll catch mocking birds
Lay your head where my heart used to beHold the earth above meLay down in the green grassRemember when you loved me
