He was sitting there quiet
I was doing much the same
'Till he touched my arm just once
And I started to cry
He said did you know the arch moves
I said no take me there, I need to be moved
It's been a long long while since my face touched the sky
Chorus:
The same glasses that fill me
Eventually fall
And I take the pieces
And I plant them all
And I call it my garden
I call it my daughter
I call it life
And my life's pretty good
I met St. Louis on a plane
He ordered me a whiskey
And I told him 'bout the shame I felt
Every last time I broke a heart
I said did you know I got a man of many moons
He said no but I get it, and I'd take me with you
Every time the clock strikes twelve
And you're feeling along
The same glasses that fill me
Eventually fall
And I take the pieces
And I plant them all
And I call it my garden
I call it my daughter
I call it my savior
I call it my prayer
I call it what matters
I call it my grace
I call it life
And my life's pretty good
I met St. Louis on a plane He was sitting there quiet I was doing much the same 'Till he touched my arm just once And I started to cry He said did you know the arch moves I said no take me there, I need to be moved It's been a long long while since my face touched the sky Chorus: The same glasses that fill me Eventually fall And I take the pieces And I plant them all And I call it my garden I call it my daughter I call it life And my life's pretty good I met St. Louis on a plane He ordered me a whiskey And I told him 'bout the shame I felt Every last time I broke a heart I said did you know I got a man of many moons He said no but I get it, and I'd take me with you Every time the clock strikes twelve And you're feeling along The same glasses that fill me Eventually fall And I take the pieces And I plant them all And I call it my garden I call it my daughter I call it my savior I call it my prayer I call it what matters I call it my grace I call it life And my life's pretty good Explain Request ×
