lyrics

Gracefully

The way it was told to me
There’s only one way to be
And a thousand different ways to see

From the cities to the wild frontiers
From a moment to a month of years
All the artifice just disappears

It doesn’t matter if you’re early or late
You’re staring down the barrel of fate
You stand naked at the crossroads and wait

A wave rolls over the sea, gracefully
The way it was meant to be peacefully

Just between you and me
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
There’s a million definitions of free

If a cloud can hold an ocean of rain
And the sun can drive a man insane
It takes a heart to stop a hurricane

Starlight turning the key, gracefully
Rising from the sea, peacefully

Tell me what you want me to know
Push me where you want me to go
It takes a seed to make a prairie grow

When the earth becomes a crystal ball
And it’s looking for a place to fall
You write your footnote on the garden wall

A wave rolls over the sea, gracefully
The way it was meant to be, peacefully
