The Grass is Greener © 2006 David Ross. All rights reserved. They say the grass is greener On the other side of town But I'm the one who's seen it And I just won't let it get me down They say the lights are brighter On a stage I never played But I find myself inspired By a man who doesn't know my name And oh... I don't know if I'm feelin' what I should be feelin' but I know I don't need a reason all I gotta do is take my time and let it flow I'm sittin' on the side and makin' money for my pride I'll write another rhyme - I'm waitin' for a sign They say he's really somethin' From what I've seen, it's true He's got the gift, that's one thing But I've got somethin' too They say each man's an island You sink or you can swim Although my prayers are silent I learned this song from him I've learned from you Exactly what I got to do I won't give up You've shown me the way I know that you Would do the same in my position and so I pray for the day When the grass is greener on this side
