Brown Grass - Gregory Porter

Brown grass

On the other side

Nothing but brown grass

Now I’m open wide

To the truth I left behind

Her love is so hard to find

Now I find myself

Falling down on brown grass

Now I find myself

Rolling 'round on brown grass

Brown grass

On the other side

Nothing but brown grass

Now I made a mess

Of the life I had with you

In search of something new

Now I find myself

Falling down on brown grass

Now I find myself

Rolling 'round on brown grass

Why didn’t I know that she was essential part of me

I thought that I needed to find me and I needed to be free

Why didn’t I know that she was all that I would ever need

I looked at the distant view and thought it was for me

But now I know

It was just brown grass

On the other side

Nothing but brown grass

Now I’m open wide

To the truth I left behind

Her love is so hard to find

Now I find myself falling down on brown grass

Now I find myself rolling 'round on brown grass

Why didn’t I know that she was essential part of me

I thought that I needed to find me and I needed to be free

Why didn’t I know that she was all that I would ever need

I looked at the distant view and thought it was for me

But now I know

It was just brown grass

On the other side

Nothing but brown grass

Now I’m open wide

To the truth I left behind

Her love is so hard to find

Now I find myself falling down on brown grass

Now I find myself rolling 'round on brown grass

Now I find myself falling down on brown grass
