Lyrics
Fall From Grace
She used to call you babe
Now she won?t even speak your name
& that long walk you took six years ago along the Beach Road Pier
Never saw it ending here
Hush the devil in your head
To satisfy the undead
All your shallow friends with their simple plans to get her off your mind
Such a waste of time
Oh your lonely fall from grace
Way too late for saving face
Tangled and drowning in your fate
In your fall from grace
Such a high class drunk
Only the finest Merlots grace your tongue
But no $50 Pinot nor the cheapest Chardonnay
Could ever drown your pain
Oh your lonely fall from grace
Way too late for saving face
Tangled and drowning in your fate
In your fall from grace
Avoid that Chinese restaurant with your table in the back
That antique bookstore where you kissed her in the stacks
You let your idle mind conjure up her face
And memories come tumbling after
You say it shouldn?t snow in May
The daffodil can?t hide his face
Now you stand exposed outside the home where she sleeps with him
And your walls are caving in
Oh your lonely fall from grace
Way too late for saving face
Tangled and drowning in your fate
In your fall from grace
In your fall from grace
In your fall from grace
