Cover art for Green Green Grass Of Home lyrics by Tom Jones

It's about a man coming back from the war . He gets off and sees that his hometown is still the same, his family's there to greet him and welcome him home . He sees his home and the tree he used to play on as a child . Then he says he wakes up and sees that he's surrounded by four grey walls, his coffin . He finds out it was only a dream . The people that gathered to see him , they are there for his funeral as they bury him beneath the green green grass of home .
