Martin Howard

Martin Howard (1725–1781) was a politician in colonial Rhode Island. An eminent lawyer, politician, phisiocrat and sceptical philosopher, and had been a delegate from Rhode Island to the Albany Congress. He was the only prominent American to publicly support the Stamp Act of 1765, in his pamphlet "A Letter from a Gentleman at Halifax to His Friend in Rhode Island," (1765) in which he asserted that Parliament had the power to impose taxes on the colonies.

Oh the wild daffodils grow
Neath the branches of the trees
And I can almost touch you here
The last place we did meet
I can hear the traffic rumble 
As it races by
I think about you now and then
A tear comes to my eye

Cos you know
The grass is always greener on the other side
The grass is always greener on the other side
I looked I leapt you laughed I cried
The grass is always greener on the other side
Grass is always greener , grass is always greener 

I know that it's my own fault
I know that I'm to blame
But ever since you went away 
Things haven't been the same 
I can hear the traffic rumble 
As it races by
I think about you now and then and
A tear comes to my eye

Cos you know
The grass is always greener on the other side
The grass is always greener on the other side
I looked I leapt you laughed I cried
The grass is always greener on the other side
Grass is always greener , grass is always greener 

I know that it's my own fault
I know that I'm to blame
But ever since you went away 
Things haven't been the same 
I can hear the traffic rumble 
As it races by
I think about you now and then and
A tear comes to my eye

Cos you know
The grass is always greener on the other side
The grass is always greener on the other side
At last immune to all your lies
The grass is never greener on the other side
Grass is never greener, the grass is never greener
