Greener Grass
Vrs. 1
I say, give me all my riches, I want what I deserve
Don’t wanna be nobody’s slave, Wanna run away from here
The grass is always greener, The grass is always greener
Vrs. 2
I bought all my friends, They loved me ‘til the end of my money
And now I’m in this dirty stinkin’ mess, abandoned and ashamed
The grass is always greener, The grass is always greener
Why are my ears broken, Why do I never learn
In spite of how I hurt You, You let the home fires burn
Vrs. 3
Feeling such a fool, so humiliated
Spurned my Father’s love, for that I must be hated
Humbled by my journey, My eyes are on the ground
I do not see your look of joy, The lost has now been found
Chorus:
Standing at the end of the road, Watching and hoping for me
Waiting on the greener grass, With Your arms stretched wide
And tears running down Your face
Come on home --- Run to Me Come on home, put My robe of love on
Come on home ---- Run to Me Come on home, welcome my child
