When you left I thought that I would soon be over you Even told myself that I would find somebody new 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 expect 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'm alive I know I can'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 expect to hear me say that I still love you then 'Cause I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
