Ben Rector - Green lyrics
[Ben Rector - Green lyrics]
I've had a longing to go
There deep in my chest like a dream
Left Portland in the mornin'
Headed for the coast
Feels like middle of nowhere
Windin' down this road and then I see it
This can't be real
I've never seen a greener green than that
The sea salt air I'm
Breathin' brings life back
Together, we're alive and free
Holdin' hands on the beach
And I remember what it is to be so green
It was so green
Take a lighthouse tour
We saw the octopus tree
Feels like some Wes Anderson movie scene
In the breeze
Made a bonfire on the beach
Talked late into the night
We made love after bottles of cheap red wine
It was way too sweet (mmm, yeah)
You taste so sweet
I've never seen a greener green than that
The sea salt air I'm
Breathin' brings life back
Together, we're alive and free
Holdin' hands on the beach
And I remember what it is to be so green
Yeah, it was so green
Yeah-eah-eah-eah, yeah, yeah, oh
I've never seen a greener green than that
The sea salt air I'm
Breathin' brings life back
Together, we're alive and free
Holdin' hands on the beach
And I remember what it is to be
You and I rememberin' what it is to be
So green it was so green
