When The Grass Grows Over Me Lyrics - Jan Howard

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 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 I'm alive I'm hurtin' 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...
