Lyrics Neil Diamond

Neil Diamond

And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind

Listen easy,

You can hear God callin'

Walkin' barefoot by a stream

Come unto me

Your hair softly fallin'

On my face as in a dream

And the time will be our time,

And the grass won't pay no mind

Sayin' nothin', lyin' where the sun is

Bakin' down upon our sighs

My lips touch you

With their soft wet kisses,

Your hands gentle in reply

And the time will be our time,

And the grass won't pay no mind

Child, touch my soul with your cries

And the music

Will know what we've found

I'll hear a hundred goodbyes,

But today I hear only one sound

The moment we're livin' is now

Na, na, na, na

Young bird flyin'

And a soft wind blowin'

Cools the sweat inside my palms

Close my eyes

And hear the flowers growin'

As you lay sleeping in my arms

And the time will be our time,

And the grass won't pay no mind

No, the grass won't pay no mind
