These fancy things
in magazines
diamond rings
and beauty queens
but nothing seems
to sparkle like you do
These fine cigars
and caviar
expensive cars
and movie stars
but everything I need
is in this room
Oh and I've seen
the lights
from New York to Vegas
and I've tasted wine
from Venice to Paris
and I've seen the sights
nothing comparing to you
So I ain't looking
over fences
tryna find a better view
My search for all
that ended
when I first laid
eyes on you
And the grass
is always greener
'cause the sun shines
when you smile
And when I'm holding you
the world makes sense
on my side of the fence
aah
If I ever win the lottery
it wouldn't mean
a lot to me
'cause I already
got you to hold
my hand
And if a genie gave me
a million wishes
I'd spend them all
on all your kisses
and save just one
to stay right where I am
So I ain't looking
over fences
tryna find a better view
My search for all
that ended
when I first laid
eyes on you
And the grass
is always greener
'cause the sun shines
when you smile
And when I'm holding you
the world makes sense
on my side of the fence
You're the rain
on the roof in the summer
you're the leaves
in the fall
changing color
you're the whisper
I hear in the thunder
on my side of the fence
You're the reason
my heart's beating faster
you're the tears falling
down from the laughter
you're the only one
I'm after
So I ain't looking
over fences
tryna find a better view
My search for all
that ended
when I first laid
eyes on you
And the grass
is always greener
'cause the sun shines
when you smile
And when I'm holding you
the world makes sense
baby when I'm holding you
the world makes sense
on my side of the fence
You know it does baby
on my side of the fence
ooh
