It's like I just woke up one morning
Looked at the way that we live
Thought things could be so much better
They must be better than this.
And If I relocated to where the grass is greener
Maybe I'd be happy again.
But I'm a little bit disappointed
'Cos now I've got my freedom
But I'm still looking over the fence.
It's always the same
At the end of the day
You always want what you haven't got.
It's like the hands of the clock stopped turning
Right at the moment you left
You went looking for something better
You stopped me dead in my tracks.
It's a bitter sweet emotion
That I'm feeling, baby, now you're happy again.
But I'm a little bit disappointed
'Cos now you've got your freedom
But you're still looking over the fence.
It's always the same
At the end of the day
You always want what you haven't got.
It's always the same
It won't ever change
You always want what you haven't got.
Thought if I relocated
To where the grass is greener
Maybe I'd be happy again
But I'm a little bit disappointed
'Cos now you've got your freedom
But I'm still looking over the fence.
It's always the same
At the end of the day
You always want what you haven't got.
It always the same
It wont ever change
You always want what you haven't got.
You always want what you haven't got.
You always want what you haven't got.
You always want what you haven't got.
