Grace Street Songtext / Lyric

"Grace Street"
By Tom Rapp

Yesterday you threw the pieces of your broken heart at me
Tears are thicker than water but you wouldn't let it be
Sweet and bleeding Jesus
Came to me in a song
But I still don't think I understand
Where he means for me to belong
And I'm going to take a walk on Grace Street
Before I'm dead and gone

Our dreams were made of something, but we used it all
We built tomorrow up too high, now watch it fall
On luminescent ships
We sailed upon the flood
But I woke up this morning
And my mouth was full of blood
And I'm going to take a walk on Grace Street
And look at where I was

You made an offer of your pain, but you didn't really want to lose it
'Cause you knew all the ways so cleverly to use it
But if you'll understand
My bleeding hands I'll try to understand yours
And I'm going to take a walk on Grace Street
And open all the doors
