Grace, I watched you sleeping |
|
All worn out and dreaming |
|
You slept through the fall |
|
I know you love this time of year |
|
It always made you smile |
|
Grace, I watched you breathing |
|
All quiet and peaceful |
|
But you were so weak |
|
When I left that night I somehow knew |
|
Your patient heart was finally through |
|
But I never cried |
|
I never cried |
|
Everything falls for a reason |
|
Gravity pulls it to earth |
|
Everyone to a season |
|
Everything falls into place |
|
Witness the fall of Grace |
|
Grace, none of us blamed you |
|
Nobody shamed you |
|
When we laid you down |
|
Everyone was there, you know |
|
Your folks, your friends, and me |
|
But I never cried |
|
I never cried |
