Colour Green

I'd been a girl and one dream frequented my late afternoon

Saw me in New York City, wearing a sweater colour green

So one night I sat down on a chair and knitted there, hmmm

Years after trying to live a woman's life, hmm

I met a friend who had a red-haired wife

She said to me, "Woman, I like your clothes"

Come on and let us try both and take tender care

But when you need help, I will be there, hmmm

Memories and seasons achieve their affairs

Sometime in April, the sweater I wear

Sometime in April, a letter I wrote

Dear friend, I think of you on the top of Empire State, hmmm

Dear friend, I'm lonesome

Dear friend, I've been well

How do you spell your name?

The city has changed me

I'm no longer the same

Wrote to me, "Woman, I'd like to stay

Liberty statue has got so many stairs

But when you need help, I will be there," hmmm

I'd been a girl and one dream frequented my late afternoon

Saw me in New York City, wearing the sweater colour green
