I've Seen Stars of Green

I've seen stars of green
and halos of yellow.
I've met men and their friends
and women and their men.
But I've never been away
from you because if there was ever a day
that I was, I'm not so sure I'd live so very long
without you by my side, I know what's wrong

Grasses of subtle love
are mowed by ladies of the road.
Wherever I go I always know
that life means a loving wife;
but don't think I'm sexist.
A beautiful woman I could resist
if I had one as such aside me.
Either way, loving someone is being free.

I have lent and I've sent
lavish gifts to seismic shifts.
Yet I've sought and bought
things that sail and never fail.
But I don't believe that I'm greedy,
and I don't ignore the needy;
it's just that I can, and so I will,
to the best of my ability, try not to kill
my dream, my American dream.
The dream I'm entitled to chase any way it seems.
