lyrics

Oh they say that Heaven will come to Earth
They say that there will be rebirth
But all I know for all its worth
I only love the Green Man
Only love the Green Man

Every spring I’ve ever known
The trees the grass the flowers have grown
And their beauty to me has shown
I only love the Green Man
Only love the Green Man

Every beat my heart will make
And every breath I’ll ever take
All I do is for his sake
I only love the Green Man
Only love the Green Man

Wind and death cold as stone
To dust will dry my flesh and bone
Where I will enrich his throne
I only love the Green Man
Only love the Green Man

He was there when time began
God shared with Him his earthly plan
He was in the stable when the angels sang
I only love the Green Man
Only love the Green Man

Life is red in tooth and claw
And all observe Mother Nature’s law
Yet he’ll be there for evermore
I only love the Green Man
Only love the Green Man

Tsunami waves and hurricanes
Landslides slips and acid rain
Through all calamities he still reigns
I only trust the Green Man

Oh they say that Heaven transcends all time
Is way beyond all reason and rhyme
With a God and I are of like mind
She’ll only trust the Green Man
She’ll only love the Green Man

So if we want to save the Earth
For generations of rebirth
We once again must learn his worth
And learn to trust the Green Man
Learn to love the Green Man
