I have been ungrateful And I have been unwise Restless from the cradle But now I realize It's so hard to see the rainbow Through glasses dark as these Maybe I'll be able From down on my knees
Oh I am weak Oh I know I am vain Take this weight from me Let my spirit be unchained
Old man swearin' at the sidewalk And I am overcome Seems that we've both forgotten Forgotten to go home
Have I seen an angel Or have I seen a ghost Where's that rock of ages When you need it most
It's so hard to see the rainbow Through glasses dark as these Maybe I'll be able From down on my knees
