Lyrics

I Thought the Grass Would Be Greener

I packed my bags at the crack of dawn
Left a home where I thought I didn’t belong
I traded sunsets for those bright city lights
Thought the grass would be greener on the other side
They say the grass is greener on the other side,
But all I find is trouble, could it be that they lied?
I’m so very disappointed with all that I find –
Is the grass really greener on the other side?

Thought I’d find a home most anywhere
But I can’t feel at home if loves not there.
This restless heart just won’t keep still,
Guess I miss the days in those Tennessee Hills
They say the grass is greener on the other side,
But all I find is trouble, could it be that they lied?
I’m so very disappointed with all that I find –
Is the grass really greener on the other side?

Could it be that I’ve been such a fool
that I left a home where love was true
Maybe I’m the one who couldn’t see
The greenest grass was there under me
They say the grass is greener on the other side,
But all I find is trouble, could it be that they lied?
I’m so very disappointed with all that I find –
Is the grass really greener on the other side?
