EELS - Oh So Lovely lyrics

rate me

My friend was lyin'

The grass was dyin'

It felt like a story you don't care where it leads

A change of venue

Will it mend you?

If the grass is not greener, you know what it needs

I knew that I had to throw down some seeds

Oh-so-lovely

Lord above me

I feel my heart changin' in mysterious new ways

Everybody

(Yeah!)

Oh-so-lovely

Now how can I tell you how grateful I am?

Fair-weather friends

They make amends

But you look in their eyes and you know it's not real

A little carin'

And soul-barin'

The actor's contract pays him how to feel

I knew it was time to make a new deal

Oh-so-lovely

Lord above me

I feel my heart changin' in mysterious new ways

Everybody

(Yeah!)

Oh-so-lovely

Now how can I tell you how grateful I am?

Jacaranda bloomin'

No clouds are loomin'

The trees are swayin'

In the wind

Up in the mornin'

Without a warnin'

The sun is a-shinin' like a newborn's smile

It's time I faced it

Don't wanna waste it

I could run away, but that's just not my style

And I think that I just might stay here a while

Oh-so-lovely

Lord above me

I feel my heart changin' in mysterious new ways

Everybody

(Yeah!)

Oh-so-lovely

Now how can I tell you how grateful I am?

Now how can I tell you how grateful I am?

Oh-so-lovely

Lord above me

I feel my heart changin' in mysterious new ways

Everybody

(Yeah!)

Oh-so-lovely

Now how can I tell you how grateful I am?

Yeah!
