Leaves Of Grass lyrics

The leaves of grass will not pass on

Though the millstones grind them into dust

For the earth shall give new life to them

But only the grass will grow once more

And the brave must fall to honor the names

Of the ones who have gone before

And the earth shall give new life to them

But only the grass will grow once more

If people could look into each other's eyes

What a wonderful place this world would be

All strife would end, we could start again

And dreams like these must not pass on

But the brave keep falling to honor the names

Of the ones who have gone before

And the earth shall give new life to them

But only the grass will grow once more

And the brave keep falling to honor the names

Of the ones who have gone before

And the earth shall give new life to them

But only the grass will grow once more

The leaves of grass will not pass on

Though the millstones grind them into dust

For the earth shall give new life to them

But only the grass will grow once more
