Lyrics

"Fall From Grace"
(c) 1996 David Jennings

How many hearts will break
When the chance they take is love
Will worlds collide at once
Will the dreams they built run cold

Side by side we will fall
As a child we crawl through change
And now the walls will fade
As we understand our pain

It's hard to see just what you believe
When your words have no recourse to the will of the Lord
And though you find time to break it down
You will never try again

And now you've learned your lesson
You've served your conscience well
And I'd tear my world apart
Just to see you fall from grace
To see you falter one more time

When did it seem to you
That the life you drew was caged
And though you thought it out
Did you try to turn the page

I know you're suffering
It's the world that brings you down
So let the world go free
And your love will guide you out

It's hard to see just what you believe
When your words have no recourse to the will of the Lord
And though you find time to break it down
You will never try again

And now you've learned your lesson
You've served your conscience well
And I'd tear my world apart
Just to see you fall from grace
To see you falter one more time

Holding on from the inside-out
And it seems to wear you down
Hanging on it just leads to doubt
Cause it's been so long, you should probably know by now

And now you've learned your lesson
You've served your conscience well
And I'd tear my world apart
Just to see you fall from grace
To see you falter one more time
