Saving Grace
Soler Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Adam and Eve and all the strangeness of humanity
Sent my soul into an orbit of anxiety
Then one night my father appeared to me in my dream
And this is what he said
\"Forgive and then forget\"
So I asked him what of all the pain I\'m going through
And if it\'s right to hate the one you think is hurting you
As I lay there in despair He placed his hands upon my head
And as I wept
This is what he said
\"Son you\'ll see oceans Mountains high and low
You\'ll have snowflakes slowly melting on your nose
And oh that feeling of the sun warming your face
The light of saving grace\"
After everything I\'ve said And all the stupid things I\'ve done
The snow has melted and today I\'m dancing in the sun
I still believe that he\'s up there
Watching over me I swear sometimes I hear
A whisper in my ear
Son you\'ll see oceans Mountains high and low
You\'ll have snowflakes slowly melting on your nose
And oh that feeling of the sun warming your face
Son you\'ll see oceans Mountains high and low
You\'ll have snowflakes slowly melting on your nose
And oh that feeling of the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace




the light of saving grace
the light of saving grace
