In My Place (OurVinyl Sessions) - Valley Queen, OurVinyl

Sing me a song it rides like a fast train

Back to where I belong

Some ancient memory

Floating on great expectations

I’ve been carried on the backs

Of my mother and my father

God knows they really loved each other

Floating on grand illusion

Was it Mary, Mother, Grace?

She’s got a way of putting us in our place

And I’d marry you dear

If I only knew me better

My mind is seeing strange tides

Can’t predict the weather

I’m just betting on

Some coming transformation

Could it be here

Oh out in California

Where no one ever dies

Or admits to growing older

Are we all bent on

Shaking our fists at the gods

Oh but Mary, Mother, Grace

She’s got a way of putting us in our place

Who’s gonna

Put me back in my place

Put me back in my place

I’ve indulged my self in sentimental loneliness

I’ve convinced myself my isolation’s holy

I’ve wasted some time

I was never yours, never mine

Oh keep your heart hard

Keep you head stubborn

You’ll never learn a damn thing

From mimicking the others

Let it in fall in line

Let it be alright

Mary, Mother, Grace

Come find a way to put my back in my place

Who’s gonna

Put me back in my place

Put me back in my place

Who’s gonna

Put me back in my place

Put me back in my place
