It's stunning how you keep me out
When all I wanna do is shout your praises
Your praises, like a starstruck teenage fan
Every time I show my hand
It's not enough to get me in your graces
Your graces, your good graces
I never traveled far, no I never took the car
To drive all night to get to new places
New places - though by god how I wish I did
How I wish I may, how I wish I might
Find my good people smiling tonight
In their faces, their faces - with no regrets
And it's your world
I'm just passing through
Just an ordinary life
I got a day job too
I don't dwell in the sky
I can't see past the moon
Clouds make a veil for the sun
To slip through
Good graces
Good graces
It's funny how you keep me down
When we occupy the same damn ground
I see traces, traces of your footsteps
Every time I follow them
It's not enough to get me in your graces
Your graces, your good graces
And it's your world
I'm just passing through
Just an ordinary life
I got a day job too
I don't dwell in the sky
I can't see past the moon
Clouds make a veil for the sun
To slip through
Good graces
Good graces
