Eels Oh So Lovely lyrics

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, 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, 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 new born'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, 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, oh, so lovely
Now how can I tell you how grateful I am?
Yeah
