other side
Hudson Moore Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thought I would be better
Off all on my own
Thought that was what I wanted
Now, I just want you home
Yeah I know I should've loved you, baby
Back when you were mine
Yeah I let you go and now I know
I need you like crazy
I guess the grass ain't greener on the other side
I guess the grass ain't greener on the other side
What if I come back over?
Would you let me in?
I know I don't deserve you
But I swear I can be a better man
Yeah I know I should've loved you, baby
Back when you were mine
Yeah I let you go and now I know
I need you like crazy




I guess the grass ain't greener on the other side
I guess the grass ain't greener on the other side
