Tree Green (feat. Beverley Martyn)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And I’ve been thinking
About the wine we’re drinking
About the line we’re sinking
I'm young as a fool, and green as a tree
Happy as a man can naturally be
A good year coming, coming running
A good year coming soon
A good year coming, coming running
A good year coming soon
Young as a fool, green as a tree
Happy as a man can naturally be with you
And I’ve been taking
All the love you were making
Just to keep from shaking
I'm as young as a fool and green as a tree
Happy as a man can naturally be
I just don’t care if it just won’t come
'Cause I know my time’s for free
I just don’t care if it just won’t come
'Cause I know the call’s for me
I'm happy as a man can naturally be
Living in the middle of a mystery with you
And it’s no use grieving
About the things you’re leaving
About the lies deceiving
Young as a fool, and green as a tree
Happy as a man can naturally be
I just don’t care if it just won’t come
'Cause I know my time’s for free
I just don’t care if it just don’t come
'Cause I know the call’s for me
It just don’t matter, just don’t matter at all
It just don’t matter, just don’t matter at all
It just don’t matter, just don’t matter at all
It just don’t matter, just don’t matter at all
