Lauren Adams

Lyrics

I was lost and lonely on the outside, looking for something that felt just right., 

I was starved, never satisfied, but couldn’t keep my heart safe, I lost the fight

Well, the grass is greener everywhere I go but I’m not fooling myself

Every place I’m in I see your face, so I need to be somewhere else

Yeah, I need to be some where else.

I went along on a trip, I took your ride, let my heart melt, I let you get inside.

With your dark eyes and your perfect smile, you had me so well, you felt you could lie.

Well, the grass is greener everywhere I go but I’m not fooling myself

Every place I’m in I see your face, so I need to be somewhere else

Yeah, I need to be some where else.

If I stayed, could I last one more day

Don’t want to be pushed away

But I need to be somewhere else

I should be O.K. with the here and now, but I can’t focus on where I’m bound

I Want to dig my heels in the ground, I’m begging you Lord don’t let me turnaround

Well, the grass is greener everywhere I go but I’m not fooling myself

Every place I’m in I see your face, so I need to be somewhere else

Yeah, I need to be some where else.

Lyrics

BAYVIEW DRIVE

 Summer’s hot, the air is wet

How much better can it get 

In our house on Bayview Dr..

Not a care in the world

I’m still Daddy’s little girl

In our house on Bay View Dr.

We played in the sunshine

We laughed in the water

Mom called Marco Polo until Daddy caught her

There is not better place you’ll find

Than right here on Bay View Dr.

Years go by the sun still shines

Coming home feels so fine

To the house on Bayview Dr.

Here I am pushing thirty and not so girly 

As I was at 5 on Bay View Dr.

Where we played in the sunshine

We laughed in the water

We learned how to love

We grew up and got stronger

There is not better place you’ll find

Than right here on Bay View Dr.

Last night I had a dream, it was so vivid and clean

It was summer there on Bayview Dr.

Mom and Dad, Sister, Brother

We all hugged each other

Together at the house on Bay View Dr.

What happened, now I’m fifty

Dad’s gone and Mom is iffy

Sold the house last year on Bayview Dr.

There’s no boat in the dock now but I sit out here anyhow

What a view on Bay View Dr.

Where...

We played in the sunshine

We laughed in the water

Mom called Marco Polo until Daddy caught her

There is not better place you’ll find

Than right there on Bay View Dr.

And I’ll remember til I die, our house on Bayview Drive.
