Patti Scialfa - State of Grace lyrics

Check your time plan station master and bless the 3:45 she's 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 I'm 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 grandfather's 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 I'm 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 I'm going to find my state of grace I'm going to find my state of grace
