Grace sat down beside me and I said
“Grace, I feel like I’m falling
Last night I…, I had this dream
That I was walking on a bridge
That was hanging by wires stretched out across a stream
And with each step I took I felt it swing
And I had to catch myself, so I reached out for the edge
But at that edge, I felt it lean
And I tried to scream, but I couldn’t scream –
In that dream, my voice was gone
And then, I was just holdin’ on
I was just holdin’ on
And, Grace, it’s hard to remember it all right now
My memory faded fast and the best I can recall is
Somehow tryin’ not to losе my grasp
And holdin’ on over that edge
And watching my lifе flash before my brow
Grace, I lost all that I know
Under that bridge, I felt and watched it flow
Like a barrel at the falls about to go over
With my life trapped inside as it came crashing down
And splashing all around
And, so, I turned my head in a different direction
And then, oh, when I looked down
I could see my reflection drownin’ in the cold water below
And it was like all hope was gone
But, Grace, I just couldn’t let it go
And so, I was just holdin’ on, you know
Grace, it was like I was just holdin’ on
And I was tryin’ so hard to say –
And to have you hear me say–
But you couldn’t hear me say it when I was sayin’ it
Well, at least in that dream, and anyway
What I was sayin’ is
‘Baby don’t you care for me?
Don’t you care for me?
I’m hoping you still care for me. Don’t you see?
Baby, you and me, yeah, we were meant to be
Don’t you see, you and me, were meant to be
Don’t you remember how, whenever we were together
We would never need to be self-protecting?
We were always and forever standing in each other's corners
Waiting for the bell to ring
For us, our love was everything
We didn’t wish for anything
And when that bell would ring
We’d both come runnin’ out and wavin’ to the crowd
And we were, inside, Grace, way deep down
Kust holdin’ on somehow
But now, I feel like I’m falling’
I feel like I’m falling. Grace'
And, Grace, like you, I am just beside myself
Aand I would be OK if this was someway else
But it’s not, it’s like I’m right back in that dream
No, it’s true, I’m still out here swaying unsteadily
Over this stream and lookin’ down
And all around for you Grace
And just holdin’ on to my words and what they mean
When you couldn’t hear me say them in that dream
Well, it all just seemed so hopeless to me
‘Cause, Grace, you bring me love, you bring me rhyme
Grace, you bring me peace to ease my mind
In time, they say, it’s so – that love can grow, you know?
But nothing’s forever etched in stone and so
I mostly just slip into quiet wistful waiting
For your healing touch
And now I’m wishing you would just…
If it’s not asking for too much, Grace...
If there’s a way, if there’s a time, if there’s a place, Grace
Where it could happen, Grace
Where it could happen
Could you just bring me back there then?
Could you just bring me back there then?
Just bring me back, my love, Grace
Just bring me back, my love, Grace
I feel like I’m falling, Grace
I feel like I’m falling
Just bring me back my love, Grace
Just bring me back my love, Grace”
