I Flew Off to the Wild Blue Yonder
'cause I Had a Dream
And I Had to Go
But I'm Filled With a Sense of Wonder
From the Love I Shared
With a Green-eyed Boy
Lips As Sweet As Mountain Honey
A Body Warm As Home Made Wine
But He Had no Dreams
And no Means For Money
But He Had Me Just Anytime
Chorus:
Take Me Back, If Just in Memory
Fill My Cup Again With Joy
The Fire Still Burns in the Old Rock Chimney
And I Still Burn For That Green-eyed Boy
Now He Was Pretty
With Chiseled Features
Like the Movie Stars in the Magazines
My First Love and the Son of a Preacher
I Fantasized Me Was James Dean
But the World Outside Kept Pulling At Me
Offered Me Fame, Respect, and Gold
Designer Clothes and a Fancy Mansion
Expensive Cars, So I Chose Those
Repeat Chorus Twice
Ooh, Ooh, How I Love That Green-eyed Boy
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, and I Still Miss
That Green-eyed Boy
Fade:
Do You Think About Me
When the Nights Are Long and Cold
Do You Ever Miss Me
Do You My Green-eyed Boy
