Dylan Mondegreen girl in grass

Select language to translate this lyric

when your girlfriend let you down
made you the laughing-stock of town
a minor mistake
caused major heartache
when your friend forgot to show
and you stood there all alone
a small detail
was added to a trail
of bad affairs
of people who donÂ't seem to care
but when your heart breaks
you feel the sweetest ache
in a riot of colour you see blue
and youÂ'd like the world to tremble for you
still your eyes may twinkle just like stars
when GingerÂ's lying flat out on the grass
put your favourite t-shirt on
and let summer come along
rejoice in the photograph
of girl in grass
you may be charmed on saturday
feel smitten on sunday
now mondayÂ's here
and youÂ're caught by fear
so you hibernate indoors
spend all day in bed because
every petty fling
seems like the greatest thing
since bread came sliced
or at least since Bread sang Yours For Life
you want your heart to break
to feel the sweetest ache
in a riot of colour you see blue
and youÂ'd like the world to tremble for you
still your eyes may twinkle just like stars
when GingerÂ's lying flat out on the grass
put your favourite t-shirt on
and let summer come along
let all your troubles pass
girl in grass
