Colour Green

Sibylle Baier Sibylle Baier

I'd been a girl and wandering
Frequented my late afternoon
Summer in New York city
Wearin' the sweater colour green

So one night I sat down in a chair and knitted there
Years after trying to lead a woman's life
I met a friend who had a red-haired wife

She said to me, woman, I'd like your clothes
Come on and let us try both and take tender care
And when you need help I will be there

Memories and seasons achieve their affairs
Sometime in April the sweater I wear
Sometime in April the letter I read

He wrote to me, dear friend, I think of you on the top of empire state
Dear friend, I'm lonesome
Dear friend, I've been well
How do you spell your name?
The city has changed me
I am no longer the same

He wrote to me, woman, I'd like to stay
Liberty Statue has got so many stars
But when you need help I will be there

I'd been a girl and wandering
Frequented my late afternoon summer in New York city
Wearin' the sweater colour green
