[Verse 1]
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
For I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

[Chorus]
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 dear
For I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Even when my eyes are closed I keep on seeing you
And each minute I'm alive I'm hurting through and through
And as long as I live I know I won't be free
For I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

[Chorus]
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 dear
For I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
[Outro]
Yes I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
