The Green Light Songtext
Daisy, daisy my dear

it's been five years since I left your home

When I didn't come back to your shore

was not to say that I didn't mean to - no


I've been biding my time

becoming the man you've always wanted of me

And now I've got you in my life, and I won't let go



I don't know whether I should go or stop

every time I see that green light at the end of your dock



But I've been biding my time

becoming the man you've always wanted of me

And now I've got you in my life, and I won't let go


Daisy, please don't make me beg

I would up and leave West Egg

if it's what you demand



We could just keep moving east

where I'll build you a new life

where the ocean meets the sand



I would give all of this up

I would drain this well-filled cup

if it meant you at my side



But I know things aren't as they seem

If I gave up this American dream

I could never catch your eye
