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
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
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
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
Repeat Chorus Twice
Ooh, ooh, how I love that green-eyed boy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, and I still miss
That green-eyed boy
Fade:
Do you think about me
When the nights are long and cold
Do you ever miss me
Do you my green-eyed boyHIGH SIGN
The Diamonds
Give me the high, high sign
Give me the high, high sign
Give me the high, high sign
Come on and lay it on the line
With the high, high sign
Give me the high sign baby
As I stroll around
Give me the high sign baby
And we'll bop around
Just raise your hand up
and give me one high sign
Now make a high sign baby
To show me that you care
Raise your hand on high, high above the air
When I touch your fingers
Don't you be no square
