Life is never what it seems

We're always searching in our dreams

To find those little castles in the air

When worry starts to cloud the mind

It's hard to leave it all behind

An' just pretend you haven't got a care

There's someone else in your imagination

You wished that you were standin' in their shoes

You'd change your life without much hesitation

But would you if you really had to choose

So don't look around

Get your feet on the ground

It's much better by far

To be just who you are

The other man's grass is always greener

The sun shines brighter on the other side

The other man's grass is always greener

Some are lucky some are not

Just be thankful for what you've got

Many times it seems to me

There's someone else I'd rather be

Living in a world of make believe

To stay in bed 'till nearly three

With nothing there to worry me

Would seem to be the life I might achieve

But deep inside I know I'm really lucky

Happiness I've never known before

Just as long as you are there beside me

I know that I could ask for nothin' more

And living can start

With the love in your heart

So with you all the time

All the chances I've longed for are mine

The other man's grass is always greener

The sun shines brighter on the other side

The other man's grass is always greener

Some are lucky some are not

I'm so thankful for what I've got

The other man's grass is always greener

The sun shines brighter on the other side

The other man's grass is always greener

Some are lucky some are not

I'm so thankful for what I've got
