Green is what I see when I close my eyes drifting out of here
ย
Colour of the forests and the uniforms and the bottles of beer
ย
Flying in low above the cedar trees through the soaking air
ย
Our voices raised high above the rotor blades and the beating of fear
So long ago
ย
Green is what I was the last time I saw my family
ย
I was hungry then for anything and everything
The world could throw at me
Then we were sweeping over lands that I never knew were there
With half a pound of dope and cigarettes
For the soldiers on either side of the burning bridge
ย
They shipped us out but I never went home
Driving timber on these mountain roads
You skip a beat and seven years goes by
ย
Tonight again I'll dream I'm walking across the room in the moonlight
I'll throw the windows open wide
Smell the falling dew outside
I'll climb out onto the roof
Close my eyes
And I'll begin to fly
ย
