lyrics

THE GREEN FIELD

The tents go up and the rain comes down
The city of green is a river of brown
There's old friends playing your favourite tune
I'll meet you in the Green Field, Saturday noon

(I'm only asking but I'd love to hear 'Yes')

Let's spend our lives forever
Go somewhere else together
I'm only asking but I'd love to hear 'Yes'

When the van packed up and the tent fell down
I saw the prettiest girl that had ever come to town
I asked her name when I asked her for a light
She said "I'll meet you in the Green Field, Saturday night"

Let's spend the night together
Go somewhere else forever
We're only dreaming we don't need to wake up yet
Pretend there's no-one out there
Spend a beautiful life together
I'm only asking but I'd love to hear 'Yes'

It isn't over when a Saturday comes, yeah
I get around but it never seems to go, yeah
I got a reason for the sun to be there
The best days of our life

I'll meet you in the Green Field, Saturday noon

(Wessex girls are still the best now)

Let's spend our lives forever
Go somewhere else together
I'm only asking but I think I know the answer
Somewhere else forever
Let's spend our time together
I know you know my name, I'm always out there, yeah

I'll meet you in the Green Field, Saturday noon
