"State of Grace" Lyrics

I'm walking fast through the traffic lights,
Busy streets and busy lives,
And all we know is touch and go.
We are alone with our changing minds,
we fall in love til it hurts or bleeds or fades in time.

And I never saw you coming,
and I'll never be the same.

You come around and the armour falls,
pierce the room like a cannonball,
now all we know is don't let go.
We are alone just you and me,
up in your room and our slates are clean
just twin fire signs and four blue eyes.

So you were never a saint,
And I love the Sade's are wrong
We learn to live with the pain
Mostly of broken hearts
But this love is raging and wild

And I never saw you coming,
And I'll never be the same.

This is a state of grace
This is the worth while fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right
These are the hands of fate
You're my Achilles heel
This is the golden age of something good
And right and real

And I never saw you coming,
And I'll never be the same.
I never saw you coming,
And I'll never be the same,
this is the state of grace,
this is the worthwhile fight,
love is a ruthless game,
unless you play it good and right.
