I'll be over you 
when the grass grows over me 
When you left, I thought that I 
would soon get over you, 
Even told myself that I 
would find somebody too, 
Time and tears have come and gone 
but not your memory, 
But I'll be over you 
when the grass grows over me 
Yes, I'll be over you 
when you're standing over me, 
And as you look down 
at the cold cold ground 
I'm sleeping in, 
Don't e pect to hear me say 
that I still love you then, 
'Cause I'll be over you 
when the grass grows over me 
Even when my eyes are closed, 
they keep on seeing you, 
Every minute of the night, 
I'm hurting through and through, 
And as long as I live, 
I know I won't be free, 
But I'll be over you 
when the grass grows over me 
Yes, I'll be over you 
when you're standing over me, 
And as you look down 
at the cold cold ground 
I'm sleeping in, 
Don't e pect to hear me say 
that I still love you then, 
'Cause I'll be over you 
when the grass grows over me
