The Grass Has Grown


I heard that you found someone and settled down
Bought a dog and met yourself some innocent clown
There was a time when
All I ever wanted was for it to be me
I’ve had to move my heart a thousand miles from here

Funny how we always want what we can’t have
Funny how we always let love take a chance

Now the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone lying close to me
Just where you used to be

Yes, the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone loving me the way I was
Supposed to be

I hope she pleases you
More than you said I did
I have found a way
To wake my soul and live

Starting again now
Learning to build up the trust that you broke
I’m here to say goodbye
With no more tears to cry

Funny how we always want what we can’t have
Funny how we always take one stupid chance

Now the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone lying close to me
Just where you used to be

Yes, the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone loving me the way I was
Supposed to be

And if I had it all over again
I’m not sure that I would want to
I don’t even think I could make you my friend
There’s nothing left

Yes, the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone lying close to me
Just where you used to be

Now the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone loving me the way I was
Supposed to be

Yes, the grass has grown
Under your feet
There’s someone lying close to me
Just where you used to be

Now, the grass has grown
Under your feet
