Grass Is Green

Her hand in mine was a perfect fit

I thought she was the one back then

First love hurts when it ends

But the world wasn’t over

I wish I could send myself a note

Say I know hurts when your heart gets broke

But the best is up the road

Just wait til you’re older

I thought my heart would never grow back

That she’s the only love I’d ever have

Old self, if you could only see

Up ahead boy the grass is green

After High School I moved to Boone

Learned guitar and started writing tunes

Found a love that wouldn’t walk on you

Just break your heart over and over

And after four years I packed my stuff

Thought what I had was more than enough

Hire the band, start the Bus

Garth Brooks move over

I spent my twenties living in a van

Saying just one more last chance

Old self, if you could only see

Up ahead Boy the grass is green

And I wouldn’t change a single thing that I’ve done

Cause I’m proud of the race that I’ve run

Old self, it’s better than you could’ve dreamed

Up ahead boy the grass is green

Hard times hurt when you’re in them

Don’t think you’ll get over that feeling

Doubt’s your biggest villain

But this too, will pass over

So if you’re sitting in the bottom of the pit

Thinking about giving in

Friend, this isn’t it

Your race ain’t over

So pick yourself up off of the ground

Look ahead and start climbing out

With some faith, yea well you’re going to see

Up ahead boy the grass is green.

Your hand in mine was a perfect fit

I thought that you were the one back then

First love hurts when it ends

But the world wasn’t over
