My Side of the Fence

These fancy things in magazines Diamond rings and beauty queens But nothing seems to sparkle like you do These fine cigars and caviar Expensive cars and movie stars But everything I need is in this room Oh, and I've seen the lights from New York to Vegas And I've tasted wine from Venice to Paris And I've seen the sights, nothing comparin' to you So I ain't lookin' over fences tryin' to find a better view My search for all that ended when I first laid eyes on you And the grass is always greener 'Cause the sun shines when you smile And when I'm holdin' you, the world makes sense On my side of the fence If I ever win the lottery It wouldn't mean a lot to me 'Cause I already got you to hold my hand And if a genie gave me a million wishes I'd spend them all on all your kisses And save just one to stay right where I am So I ain't lookin' over fences tryin' to find a better view My search for all that ended when I first laid eyes on you And the grass is always greener 'Cause the sun shines when you smile When I'm holdin' you, the world makes sense On my side of the fence You're the rain on a roof in the summer You're the leaves in the fall changing color You're the whisper I hear in the thunder On my side of the fence You're the reason my heart's beatin' faster You're the tears, fallin' down from the laughter You're the only one I'm after So I ain't lookin' over fences tryin' to find a better view My search for all that ended when I first laid eyes on you And the grass is always greener 'Cause the sun shines when you smile And when I'm holdin' you, the world makes sense Baby, when I'm holdin' you, the world makes sense On my side of the fence You know it does, baby On my side of the fence
