Grace Songtext
von Hannes Aitman

For 18 years I′d walked the earth
I didn't know where to run and I didn′t know who to trust
For all I've known has turned into dust

But I met this girl in Timbuctoo
I didn't know how to walk so I couldn′t help but to fall
And in her eyes I saw Jesus call

She loved the king and big blue rings
And the wildflowers growing out in the fields
And I could feel my heart drop its shields

We rode our bikes out to the sea
And there I think asked what she′s seeing in me
And why a dream like her shouldn't be free

Sometimes I fade, I think I′m okay
But she's there in my dreams


I could forget about the money
I could forget about my trace
Just as long as I′ve got her, Grace
I could go borrow from Gods rainbow
To go painting her sweet face
Just as long as I've got her, Grace

Her dress kept flying in the wind
And she kept a red book as a bleeding friend
Then she said she likes to pretend

She′s in a book by Jane Austen
She wanted to be a star and the greatest of them all
A flower child is bound to have a ball

She doesn't care for evil things
She knows they'll only use her and clip her wings
She can′t be mugged on all the joy she brings

And if you see her can you say
"I didn′t know how to tell her but I loved her ways
And all I want to hold is her, Grace"

Sometimes I fade, I think I'm okay
But she′s there in my dreams


I could forget about the money
I could forget about my trace
Just as long as I've got her, Grace
I could go borrow from Gods rainbow
To go painting her sweet face
Just as long as I′ve got her, Grace
