The grass keeps right on growin'

The sun goes right on shinin'

There are apples on the apple tree

Ain't life a funny thing, flowers bloom an' birds still sing an'

Everything's the same except for me . . .



Everything's the same except for me . . .

Because, you're gone . . .

I tell myself you're really gone

How can it be, but there it is,

I'm alone once again . . .



An' life goes on

Without your smile i knew so well

The secrets that we used to tell

Yesterday way back when?



And . . . the grass keeps right on growin'

The sun goes right on shinin'

The skies are blue the way they used to be

Ain't life a funny thing, kids play tag an' church bells ring an'

Everything's the same except for me . . .



Everything's the same except for me . . .

'cause, you're not there . . .

I look for you but you're not there

I hear your voice , it's just a trick

That my mind wants to play . . .

How can this world keep turnin' like it used to do?

There's no more world, there's no more you,

No more words left to say . . .



And . . . the grass keeps right on growin'

The sun goes right on shinin'

There are apples on the apple tree

Ain't life a funny thing, flowers bloom an' birds that sing an'

Everything the same except for me . . .



. . . everything's the same except for me . . .
