lyrics

Greenwood Girls
(©Kevin Gordon/Gwil Owen)

Greenwood girls swing high, swing low
School is out, days are long
Evening coming like a long slow song
Like a long slow song

Barefoot dreams on grass so green
Laughing eyes, dancing feet
Ice cream melts in the summer heat

I’m riding on this bus to nowhere
And I’m miles from home
Driver pulls around the corner
The Greenwood girls are gone

Greenwood girls grow up too soon
Leave the sun to chase the moon
Curtains blowing in an empty room

And I’m riding on this bus to nowhere
And I’m miles from home
I close my eyes for a moment
The Greenwood girls are gone
