Lyrics

State of Grace

On a plane to Salt Lake City sweat on my face
Waiting for takeoff get out of this place
Looked around at the passengers they were all beat
Heard my inner voice say get out of your seat

I was a man who was looking for his calling
And it was a state of grace that had fallen

I got up and asked the flight attendant for something to drink
And if she had any water she could bring around the plane
She looked up at me and said there’s not enough time
It could be any moment that we’ll be up in the sky

I was a man who was looking for his calling
And it was a state of grace that had fallen

I was taken away from a race to taste the fat end
Brought to a place where kindness was all that mattered, it doesn’t happen every day

I told her I’d help and go up and down the row
She gave me some cups and a jug of H2O
I went to the back and started down the aisle
Giving people a drink and they gave me a smile

I was a man who was looking for his calling
And it was a state of grace that had fallen
