Green Grass

Are you leaving?

Do I feel you disappear

Am I crying?

Am I dreaming?

Will I wake up years ago?

Or am I dying?

I remember so long ago

When the sky was still blue

I was welcomed and loved

Not alone

I remember so long ago

When it still felt so good

And you told me I could

Have my way with you

I remember way down inside

You're pretending

Make believing I'm in charge

I am a child

I am starving

I am eating from your hands

Feed me fiction

I remember so long ago

When we met I was new

And you told me "the truth sets

You free..."

Yes, you did

And I remember so long ago

And the green in your eyes

Set off something inside me

That burns

Feel it burning

Way down inside

On that beautiful night

I watched you while you slept

Through my warm, purle high

In the green grass

Where I held you, and I wept

In the green grass where I wept

Way down inside

I remember so long ago

When you said not a word

But I know that I heard your goodbye

Yes, I did

And I remember so long ago

And I knew you were gone

But your love lingered on

Through the years

I still love you

Way down inside

Would the moon forget

The tide ?

Would the soul forget to die?

Would the wind forget to sigh?

Would my eyes forget to cry?

I'll remember like the moon

Way down inside
