There's a window with a view that would blind a star
There's a man next to me
And he's so good he wouldn't **** a fly
There's a smile on my face that always wants some more
But for the moment that face is feeling good enough

And as the day went by emptiness made it's way inside
Suddenly the sun was never bright enough
And as other men would come my way
Suddenly my man was never good enough

And as the day went by all that I didn't have became so appealing
That suddenly my job seemed like an endless chore
And suddenly my home seemed like a pitless hole
And by that time, as usual, I was already longing for more

And so I did,
I ran away,
I escaped the misery
I went on the quest of finally winning the lottery.
And when I ultimately found a man and a home that made me feel alive.
I settled with a smile on my face that always wants some more.

I had left a few broken dishes and hearts on the way.
But had no regrets thinking I was finally satisfied.
However while waking up the next day.
I realised the grass was greener on the other side.
