(Don Chapel)

When you left I thought that I would soon get over you
Even told myself that I'd 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
For I'll be over you when the grass grows over me.

Even when my eyes are closed I keep on seeing you
And each 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 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
For I'll be over you when the grass grows over me...
