They say the grass is always greener
But they wouldn't if they meet her
'cause she's got a way of
turning everything around

I see her through the big end of
a telescope although she seems so far away
I still have hope that maybe
someday we'll be close

And she's got me thinking upside down
Talking backward out the wrong side of my mouth
Making promises that I can't keep
That's how I know
That I'm in deep

All signs say stop but I say go
The light is red but even so
I won't slow down until we
find some common ground

There is no time to hesitate
'cause if I do she'll slip away
And then the hour will grow too late
For me to tell her how I feel

And she's got me thinking upside down
Talking backward out the wrong side of my mouth
Making promises that I can't keep
That's how I know
That I'm in deep

There's something about her that just glows
In the sun and rain and deepest winter snow

And she's got me thinking upside down
Talking backward out the wrong side of my mouth
Making promises that I can't keep
That's how I know
That I'm in deep
