Green Grass, Rainwater

Mexico a disaster
It's time I disappear
Spent my fortune on breakfast
Scrambled eggs and beer

Broke but glad to be breathing
And leaving here at last
Point myself at my future
Forget about the past
I wish you
Green grass, rainwater
And a window taking light from the east
Providence your umbrella be
Now let your dog run free

Smy head at the mirror
Said save yourself while you can
I tried harder to please you, baby
Than any self-respecting man

Shake the dust off my jacket
I fought the final fight
Can't blame fools for trying
Just didn't get it right

Our labors made at love were lost
I paid the cost for my mistakes
The tower fell, but I wish you well
Don't bother bout me anymore
Don't bother bout me anymore

Hit San Diego at sundown
Another hot summer night
Made my way to the water to see
The reflections of the harbor lights

The shining sea of illusion
The original sin
Me, I've taken a good long look
I've reviewed the shape I'm in.
