Grace - Nerina Pallot

Will you come down off there?

It’s a heavenly height

For someone so fragile and haunted at night

And I cannot save you

Try as I might

I’m wasting myself but I want to take flight

Oh kid, if I could, I would try

So they gave you the Bible

But the good book just lied

'Cause nobody said life would be such a trial

And now there are tears in your eyes

It’s a long way down

Don’t look down, don’t look down

And it’s hard holding on

But grace will come, so kid hold on

'Cause I just want to love you

I just want to try

'Cause life is so short and we’re both gonna die

So put your head on my shoulder

Lift your eyes to the sky

You’re my blood and my baby and we’re gonna fly

As long as we’re here we must try

It’s a long way down

Don’t look down, don’t look down

And it’s hard holding on

But grace will come, so kid hold on

I just want to love you

I just want to try

'Cause life is so short and we’re both gonna die

But take a deep breath, let’s fly
