Here we are, there's nowhere else to go And that's so far from where we all could be But you can't feel my disappearing And you should take this for what it's worth This is it and it fits And it feels like this is good enough for me Could it be that the grass is always green? There you are, you dream of something better What's so wrong with what you thought was true? And all the colors are disappearing But you should take this for what it's worth This is it and it fits And it feels like this is good enough for me Could it be that the grass is always green? This is it (This is it) This is it (This is it) If you feel like disappearing You should take this for what it's worth This is it and it fits And it feels like this is good enough for me Could it be that the grass is always green? This is it, this is it
