LYRICS FOR
GREENER GRASS
It is early Saturday morning, about a half past ten.
You are just getting home, come on girl, where have you been?
But please don't answer that because I know you're going to lie.
I've known for a long time that you found another guy.
Now you just happened to catch me as I was heading out the door.
My bags are packed and in the car...I can't take no more.
Don't even feel guilty, in my heart I know I've tried.
Now I'm looking for that greener grass over on the other side.
Some people say it's true but may be it's not...
They say the grass on the other side is the same grass you've go.
You might think I'm crazy but may be they lied.
I believe, sometimes, the grass is greener on the other side.
Sometimes I ask myself "Why do you do the things you do?"
May be the thing that's move me is not what's moving you.
Sometimes it's hard to figure what someone else is going through.
May be the grass is greener through your eyes too.
But it don't make no difference why the love has died
I've got to jump that fence and get to the other side.
Don't even feel guilty, in my heart I know I've tried.
Now I'm looking for that greener grass over on the other side.
Some people say it's true but may be it's not...
They say the grass on the other side is the same grass you've go.
You might think I'm crazy but may be they lied.
I believe, sometimes, the grass is greener on the other side.
Some say it's crazy, don't make no sense...
It's the same ol' grass on the other side of the fence
Some say it's crazy don't make no sense...
That grass ain't no greener on the other side of the fence
Some say it's crazy don't make no sense
THE GRASS ALWAYS LOOKS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE.
