about

Written by Bart de Win. First single from the album Gemstone road. About how the grass might look greener on the neighbors yard, and about how you can never tell what's going on in peoples lives.

lyrics

Gemstone road

So this is it, I didn’t see it coming
I guess it all slipped between the cracks
Just peeked a bit without really knowing
I was the leader of the pack
So this is it, I didn’t see it coming
Such a great fit, no turning back

It’s hard to see the darker side
Of a gemstone road full of light
We live and learn, we live and learn

Hearts of gold, there’s no denying
We were told not to go
Seems so cold to kick through the crying
When you don’t know who runs the show

It’s hard to see the darker side
Of a gemstone road full of light
We live and learn, we live and learn

Green green grass, like ever changing melodies
Green green grass, like ever changing memories
Green green grass, like ever changing melodies
We live and learn

So this is it, I didn’t see it coming
I guess it all slipped between the cracks
So this is it, I didn’t see it coming
Such a great fit, no turning back
