Splendor in the Grass
I can see you're thinking lately,I've been thinking tooAbout the way we used to beAnd how to start anew.
Oh, maybe I'm a hopeless dreamer,Maybe I've got it wrong,But I'm going where the grass is greenIf you'd like to come along.
Back when I was starting outI always wanted more,But every time I got itI still felt just like before.
Oh, fortune is a fickle friend,I'm tired of chasing fameAnd when I look into your eyesI know you feel the same.
All these years of living largeAre starting to do us in,I won't say it wasn't fun,But now it has to end.
Oh, life is moving oh so fast,I think we should take it slowAnd rest our heads upon the grassAnd listen to it grow.
Going where the hills are greenAnd the cars are few and far,Days are full of splendorAnd at night you can see the stars.
Life is been moving, oh, so fast,I think we should take it slowAnd rest our heads upon the grassAnd listen to it grow.
