Tom Waits - All The World Is Green Lyrics

Send "All The World Is Green" ringtone to your cell

He:

I fell into the ocean

When you became my wife

I risked it all against the sea

To have a better life

Marie you're the wide blue sky

And men do foolish things

You turn kings into beggars

And beggars into kings

Pretend that you owe me nothing

And all the world is green

Let's pretend we can bring back the old days again

And all the world is green

She:

Let me lie about it all

Call back yesterday

We lay down in a shady grove

With the yellow buds of May

Now the shadows are getting longer

Winter's moving in

It is colder than I remember

That it's ever been

Pretend that you owe me nothing

And all the world is green

Let's pretend we can bring back the old days again

And all the world is green

She:

The face forgives the mirror

The worm forgives the plow

The questions begs the answer

Can you forgive me somehow

Maybe when our story's over

We'll go where it's always spring

The band is playing our song again

And all the world is green

Pretend that you owe me nothing

And all the world is green

Let's pretend we can bring back the old days again

And all the world is green

He:

When the moon is yellow silver

On the things that summer brings

It's a love you'd kill for

And all the world is green

He is balancing a diamond

On a blade of grass

The dew will settle on our grave

When all the world is green
