Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're preaching to the choir
Stop hating on yourself
Quit playing with your mind
You're spinning
If you think that I'm a liar
Just try it for yourself
The clouds will open up
Blue skies are willing
Yeah, I know it's so hard to throw away
The clouds will open up
Blue skies are willing
[Chorus]
Back on your feet again
Lift your head, hold it high
You wanna run it back
But you can't turn the time
You start to feel like you're losing your shine
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
The other side
Got you stuck in your mind
You start to feel like you're losing your shine
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
[Verse 2]
Hey, you
Stop stressing 'bout what you're missing
So blue, just take it easy, take your time
If you think my words are wise
Just try it for yourself
I promise the stars will light the path you walk
Don't give in
Got a heart of gold
What a shame to go to waste
The clouds will open up
Blue skies are willing
[Chorus]
Back on your feet again
Lift your head, hold it high
You wanna run it back
But you can't turn the time
You start to feel like you're losing your shine
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
[Chorus]
The other side (Feet again, lift your head, hold it high)
Got you stuck in your mind (Run it back, but you can't turn the time)
You start to feel like you're losing your shine
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
[Bridge]
Just take it from me, you'll be okay (You'll be okay)
'Cause it don't matter how sweet it taste (How sweet it taste)
The grass ain't green, don't worry
Losing sleep, still want to get
Yeah, you get
[Chorus]
Back on your feet again
Lift your head, hold it high
You wanna run it back
But you can't turn the time
You start to feel like you're losing your shine
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
[Outro]
You start to feel like you're losing your shine
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
