Lyrics
SAVING GRACE
Doesn't see color like me and you
To Grace it's not red, white and blue
Vermilion, eggshell and, azure
She's one in a million, that's for sure
Grace may live in a black and white world
Don't be fooled she's a colorful girl
When she goes to sleep at night
Dreams of colors oh so bright
Color and beauty in every place
It's her vision, its saving Grace
Doesn't see life through rose-colored glasses
But she wears them to evening classes
Earns her pay all day at the mini-mart
So at night it feels right to be making art
Grace may live in a black and white world
Don't be fooled she's a colorful girl
When she goes to sleep at night
Dreams of colors oh so bright
Color and beauty in every place
It's her vision, its saving Grace
(solos)
BRIDGE
Grace's mind it's a beautiful place
She doesn't run in the old rat race
She's more black leather than bows and lace
It's all about saving Grace
Grace goes to work to pay the rent
With her life she is content
Takes care of business nine to five
Colorful night make her feel alive
Grace doesn't feel an ounce of shame
She doesn't play those silly games
Grace may live in a black and white world
Don't be fooled she's a colorful girl
When she goes to sleep at night
Dreams of colors oh so bright
Color and beauty in every place
It's her vision, its saving Grace
Grace's mind it's a beautiful place
She doesn't run in the old rat race
She's staring life right in the face
It's all about saving Grace
It's all about saving Grace
It's all about saving Grace
