Lyrics

Fields of Green (Griffiths-Owen-Tani) ------------------------------ That night that I left, I could see my breath, By the light of a thousand stars. A thousand stars. Blinded by dreams, and sensational schemes, I bid thee my fondest farewell, “Fare Thee Well.” Lost were your blue-sky days. Lost were your fields of green. For something I’d only seen, In a dream, in a dream My travels were long, Behind me was gone, With one more horizon to go. Always one more. But as far as I went I was never content With the life I found out there Grasping at air Lost were your blue-sky days. Lost were your fields of green. For something I’d only seen, In a dream, in a dream Yours was the breath I longed for on my neck The warmth of your lips on my cheek. The lover’s touch I seek –in the morn’ That night black as coal, I drifted back home, By the light from a thousand stars. A thousand stars. I was young, you were right. I was blind to the light And the things I could not see, Now I see. Home in your blue-sky days. Home in your fields of green. Like nothing I’ve ever seen, In a dream, in a dream.
