Tom Waits Houston All the World is Green Jones Hall 6/22/08

This was the last song he performed.it was a great song!
Here are the lyrics:
Tom Waits - All The World Is Green


I fell into the ocean
When you became my wife
I risked it all against the sea
To have a better life
Marie you're the wild blue sky
And men do foolish things
You turn kings into beggars
And beggars into kings

Pretend that you owe me nothing
And all the world is green
We can bring back the old days again
And all the world is green

The face forgives the mirror
The worm forgives the plow
The questions begs the answer
Can you forgive me somehow
Maybe when our story's over
We'll go where it's always spring
The band is playing our song again
And all the world is green

Pretend that you owe me nothing
And all the world is green
We can bring back the old days again
And all the world is green

The moon is yellow silver
Oh the things that summer brings
It's a love you'd kill for
And all the world is green

He is balancing a diamond
On a blade of grass
The dew will settle on our grave(s)
When all the world is green

Thanks for this...I've uploaded three never before seen Waits videos this week..of jan 10 2009.

yeah, I've found videos long after they were posted, something goes wrong with the search parameters I think. It's weird and annoying!
