Sang Grace For Me

Sang Grace For Me By Mack Hollowpoint Grey cloudy night, the moon hides behind I stir the ice in my whiskey twice, I guess I’m falling behind The old dog catches his shadow and wags its tail Thinking on a different time when we were young And ran for the sun I ain’t saying we have always been fun I’m just saying we once ran for the sun Carried more on our shoulders than most could bear But we didn’t mind as long as the whiskey was there Now the years don’t wait like they used to do And the hands that held me don’t feel the same But I still hear her in the candlelight Calling out my name I’d come home after working to the bone And there she’d be holding dinner for me Draped in holy candlelight it seemed Yeah she sang grace over me Like I was worth believing Yeah she sang grace over me And it gave my tears a reason to be Now the porch light flickers and the night hangs low Waiting for that lonely moon to show But I still got a chair and a bottle to share And an old guitar I still strum for soul I’d come home after working to the bone And there she’d be holding dinner for me Draped in holy candlelight it seemed Yeah she sang grace over me Like I was worth believing Yeah she sang grace for me Now here comes the moon She’ll be here soon We don’t race into the sun anymore But we’ll wait for the moon Yeah, she’ll be here soon
