Tom Waits - "Green Grass"

Listen to the full album: bit.ly/2vTADtT
"Green Grass" by Tom Waits from the album 'Real Gone'
Lyrics
Lay your head where
My heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down in the green grass
Remember when you loved me
Come closer don't be shy
Stand beneath a rainy sky
The moon is over the rise
Think of me as a train goes by
Clear the thistles and brambles
Whistle didn't he ramble
Now there's a bubble of me
And its floating in thee
Stand in the shade of me
Things are now made of me
The weather vane will say
It smells like rain today
God took the stars and he
Tossed 'em can't tell
The birds from the blossoms
You'll never be free of me
He'll make a tree from me
Don't say good bye to me
Describe the sky to me
And if the sky falls mark
My words - we'll catch mocking birds
Lay your head where
My heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down in the green grass
Remember when you loved me

If there was one love song ever to be written, this would be the one.

@@CJVS995 that line and his delivery get me every time.

Amazing! This lyrics makes me remind a little of the best Brazilian novel, written by an author seeing life in details after life has gone. " Epitaph of a Small Winner". Tom is huge. 👏

Lay your head where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down on the green grass
Remember when you loved me
Come closer don't be shy
Stand beneath a rainy sky
The moon is over the rise
Think of me as a train goes by
Clear the thistles and brambles
Whistle 'Didn't He Ramble'
Now there's a bubble of me
And it's floating in thee
Stand in the shade of me
Things are now made of me
The weather vane will say
It smells like rain today
God took the stars and he tossed 'em
Can't tell the birds from the blossoms
You'll never be free of me
He'll make a tree from me
Don't say goodbye to me
Describe the sky to me
And if the sky falls, mark my words
We'll catch mocking birds
Lay your head where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down on the green grass
Remember when you loved me
