Possessions of Grace

Counting her blessings, she looks at me
Leaving no room for discussion
What a strange way for her to be
Making storms out of nothing

Leaving her lovers and friends to be
Counting the stars in her books
Walking on caco crystals to see
If they've turned into rooks

She's impossibly lovely
She guards her ships
Guess I'll never see her way of sailing
She's impossibly lovely
She guards her ships
Guess I'll never see her way of sailing

Ask for forgiveness or forget to ask
Is it our failings or age?
Giving in to wearing that mask
Pretending you like the cage

She's impossibly lovely
She guards her ships
Guess I'll never see her way of sailing
She's impossibly lovely
She guards her ships
Guess I'll never see her way of sailing

Carrying the weight of all that strife
She keeps her vessels afloat
Getting lost in the stream of life
Afraid to end up alone

She's impossibly lovely
She guards her ships
Guess I'll never see her way of sailing
She's impossibly lovely
She guards her ships
Guess I'll never see her way of sailing
