Every Grain Of Sand
Key: DCapo 1English
D G (4x)
Verse
In the Dtime of my Gconfession in the Dhour of my deepest Gneed
When the Dpool of tears Gbeneath my feet Aflood every newborn seed
There's a Ddying voice Gwithin me Dreaching out Gsomewhere
DToiling in the Gdanger and in the Amorals of despair.
Don't Ahave the inclination to look Dback on any Amistake
Like Cain I now behold this chain of Devents that I must Abreak
In the Dfury of the Gmoment I can Dsee the master's Ghand
In Devery leaf that Gtrembles in Aevery Ggrain of Dsand.
Verse
Oh the Dflowers of Gindulgence and the Dweeds of Gyesteryear
Like Dcriminals they have Gchoked the breath of Aconscience and good cheer
The Dsun beat down Gupon the steps of Dtime to light the Gway
To Dease the pain of Gidleness and the Amemory of decay.
I Agaze into the doorway of Dtemptation's angry Aflame
And every time I pass that way I Dalways hear my Aname
Then Donward in my Gjourney I Dcome to Gunderstand
That Devery hair is Gnumbered like Aevery Ggrain of Dsand.
Verse
I have Dgone from rags to Griches in the Dsorrow of the Gnight
In the Dviolence of a Gsummer's dream in the Achill of a wintry light
In the Dbitter dance of Gloneliness Dfading into Gspace
In the Dbroken mirror of Ginnocence on Aeach forgotten face.
I Ahear the ancient footsteps like the Dmotion of the Asea
Sometimes I turn there's someone there other Dtimes it's only Ame
I am Dhanging in the Gbalance of the Dreality of Gman
Like Devery sparrow Gfalling like Aevery Ggrain of Dsand.
