State Of Grace

Scialfa Patti

Check your time plan station master 
And bless the 3:45 
Shes rolling fast and free 
And don't she look just like me 
Spitting off smoke 
And all empty inside 
I left my baby down on a city street 
Our love followed the course of the sun 
It rose above the city skyline 
And sunk behind the turnpike oil drums well 
Come on now mister conductor 
Come on and seal my fate 
I was raised to find my way 
Now Im going to find my state of grace 
So I went walking down the edges of the city 
To the iron lady and the holy land 
With no English my family came 
And money left a stain on their foreign hands 
I don't know how some people do it 
They just walk away and they 
Don't look back 
Under a river in a cold mud tunnel 
My grandfathers ghost's still 
Slamming the jack well 
Come on now mister conductor 
Come on and seal my fate 
I was raised to find my way 
Now Im going to find my state of grace 
Last night I had a dream of forgiveness 
We were walking on some sacred ground 
And a light fell from heaven with a promise 
That all lost things are someday found well. 
Come on now mister conductor 
Come on and seal my fate 
I was raised to find my way 
Now Im going to find my state of grace 
Im going to find my state of grace
