Grace and Nature

Listing in the winter sky

A darkened heart beholden

To secret friends he tells a lie

Who don't believe in scoldin'

So nature takes its cruel revenge

A lightning rod for rancor

And winter's heart drags on the binge

A ship without an anchor

For grace and nature both survive

Neglecting one another

A broken heart from stones that I've

Reflected off my brother

The beggar and the millionaire

Sustain a common spirit

Life goes on and I declare

I don't want to fear it anymore

A siren sounding deep at night

A mother's left uncertain

She's got to know her son's alright

For sleep to draw the curtain

The telephone is by her bed

But fate's not in her power

He's never heard a word she said

And late becomes the hour

For grace and nature both survive

Neglecting one another

A broken heart from stones that I've

Reflected off my brother

The beggar and the millionaire

Sustain a common spirit

Life goes on and I declare

I don't want to fear it anymore (No more)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh

Someone tries to take command

And someone else has to understand

The binding sheets of the human race

All boil down to nature and grace

For grace and nature both survive

Neglecting one another

A broken heart from stones that I've

Reflected off my brother

The beggar and the millionaire

Sustain a common spirit

Life goes on and I declare

I don't want to fear it anymore
