Soft Green Grass
Like the soft green grass
'neath
the morning dew
I'm thinking 'bout you
The tides and change
happens to everything
and everyone that
you ever knew
I can't remember
the whens or whys
we were divided
in two
Cassidy . . .
Ah ! The nightime stars
appear so near
yet they are so far
We have cut their beams
We had our plans
The world was our's
if it was only
in our dreams
Oh ! Cassidy
You drove your car
a Cadillac
the top pulled down
and the radio on
I asked you ,"Where ?"
you said,"I don't care
as long
as we are moving on."
Remember those
night time wails
and the days
we spent in jail
The women we met
The broken drum set
The times we said ,
"We're going to Hell !"
Oh ! Cassidy !
In Mexico you
met your match
on the railroad tracks
trying to escape the pain
Your hand was hot
but the deck was stacked
so you cashed
out of the game
The Tequila was warm
but the night
was cold
and your clothes were thin
You went to sleep
and left
the pain behind
never to wake again
Cassidy , oh Cassidy !
Like the soft green grass
beneath
the morning dew
I'm thinking 'bout you
