lyrics

In the town of Mercy
I lived on the town line
Across the way
I’m happy to say
Was a baby born named Grace
Was a baby born named Grace

She was Gracie to her mother
Graceful to her dad
And both so grateful that she existed at all

Now me I outgrew Mercy
Grace she did the same
Watchful of fumes and rhythms and hues
Of the cars as they drove away
Of the cars as they drove away

Come around now
Past the hounds now
There’s no parish for the dumb priest
and no grace (no grace, no grace)
No Grace for those who don’t say anything

Now me I tiptoed borders
Grace she hid away
She read from the books of sinners and crooks
And she learned how to get away
And she learned how to get away

Grace she spoke to Gypsies
Gypsies they spoke to Grace
About skyblue gems and the ghost of a dance
That she then taught to me
The night that she would leave

“It’s all in the eyes, and the wave of your hands.
And trust that your feet can do more than stand.
Yes they can float
From heel to toe
Along with those you love”

So come around now
Past the hounds now
There’s no parish for the dumb priest
And no grace (no grace, no grace)
No grace (no grace, no grace)
No grace (no grace, no grace)
No Grace for those who don’t say anything

The Oh Hellos sind was besonderes für mich. Ich mag die Wechsel zwischen den ruhigen, atmospherischen Passagen und den rhythmischen Passagen. Ich mag wie ihr Spannung aufbaut. Ich mag die Stimme von Maggie und Tyler. Ich mage den unisono Gesang der ganzen Band. Ich wünsche mir eine neue Produktion von The Oh Hellos und Surfjan Stevens; und eine Tour mit einem Konzert im Westen von Deutschland. Kert Goéland
