The Color Green Songtext
von The Innocence Mission

We′ll get back there someday
We will stand together
And I will not worry so much
And the weather
Can be snow above the stairs or
Lakes and rivers running off of
The windows
Looking out, looking out
I may see this better


The color green was sent to me in four beat measures
Of fields and their walkers in cardigan sweaters
With the lavender sky that was
Just beginning to rain down in
The music
This is how it was sent, in and out of weather

Walking home I'm listening out
Between the buildings I′m listening with you
For any song we knew

The color green was sent to me in waves, and lifted
Me up three stories. I could see the day gifted
And tomorrow in the car
Things may turn around, I have to
Watch out
This is how it was sent, in a sudden visit
