Shel Silverstein - Rings Of Grass lyrics

rate me

Rings of grass crowns of flowers they're gone gone gone gone

Furs that I woven of whispering hours gone gone gone gone

She's gone away where the rings are real

And the furs have warmth that a woman can feel

Round and round round goes the wheel

And she's gone gone gone gone gone

Rings of grass and crowns of flowers gone gone gone gone

Castles of sand with seashell towers gone gone gone gone

She's gone away where the dreams are small

But the castles are rock and they never fall

And left me here to live among all that is gone gone gone gone gone

Rings of grass oh why did they die away gone gone gone gone

Whispering hours where did they fly away gone gone gone gone

And where is the wisdom to understand

That years would crumble our castles of sand

And the flowers and grass turn brown in our hands

When it's gone gone gone gone gone gone gone gone
