Lyrics

[Verse 1] Lay your head where my heart used to be Hold the earth above me Lay down in the green grass Remember when you loved me [Verse 2] Come closer, don't be shy Stand beneath a rainy sky The moon is over the rise Think of me as a train goes by [Verse 3] Clear the thistles and brambles Whistle "Didn't He Ramble" Now there's a bubble of me And it's floating in thee [Verse 4] Stand in the shade of me Things are now made of me The weather vane will say "It smells like rain today" [Verse 5] God took the stars and he tossed 'em Can't tell the birds from the blossoms You'll never be free of me He'll make a tree from me [Verse 6] Don't say goodbye to me Describe the sky to me And if the sky falls, mark my words We'll catch mockingbirds [Outro] Lay your head where my heart used to be Hold the earth above me Lay down in the green grass Remember when you loved me
