Green-Eyed Boy

[Verse 1] I flew off to the wild blue yonder Cause I had a dream And I had to go But I'm filled with a sense of wonder From the love I shared With a green-eyed boy [Verse 2] Lips as sweet as mountain honey A body warm as home made wine But he had no dreams And no means for money But he had me just anytime [Chorus] Take me back, If just in memory Fill my cup again with joy The fire still burns in the old rock chimney And I still burn for that green-eyed boy [Verse 3] Now he was pretty With chiseled features Like the movie stars in the magazines My first love and the son of a preacher I fantasized me was James Dean [Verse 4] But the world outside kept pulling at me Offered me fame, respect, and gold Designer clothes and a fancy mansion Expensive cars, so I chose those [Chorus 2x] [Bridge] Ooh, ooh, how I love that green-eyed boy Ooh, ooh, ooh, and I still miss That green-eyed boy [Verse 5] Do you think about me When the nights are long and cold Do you ever miss me Do you my green-eyed boy
