The Other Man's Grass Is Always Greener Lyrics - Perry Como

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 go 

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 go 

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 go
