(Dolly Parton)
|
I've had to think up a way to survive
|
Since you said it's over
|
Told me good-bye
|
I just can't make it one day without you
|
Unless I pretend that the opposite's true
|
|
Rivers flow backwards
|
Valleys are high
|
Mountains are level
|
Truth is alive
|
I'm perfectly fine
|
And I don't miss you
|
The sky is green
|
And the grass is blue
|
|
How much can a heart and a troubled mind take
|
Where is that fine line before it all breaks
|
Can one end their sorrow
|
Just cross over it
|
And into that realm of insanitive bliss
|
|
There's snow in the tropics
|
There's ice on the sun
|
It's hot in the Arctic
|
And crying is fun
|
And I'm happy now
|
And I'm glad we're through
|
And the sky is green
|
And the grass is blue
|
|
And the rivers flow backwards
|
And my tears are dry
|
Swans hate the water
|
And eagles can't fly
|
But I'm alright now
|
Now that I'm over you
|
And the sky is green
|
And the grass is blue
|
And I don't love you
|
And the grass is blue
|
|
