Saving Grace
Intro:
I’ve got these friends of mine
Sorta weird but all kinds of wonderful
And they work, you know?
Anyway, this is their story.
1.
Here comes Tommy, running up the road
Something on his mind that he needs to offload
He meets up with Jessie and straight away he tells her
That’s great... really great.
2.
Ah Jessie, Jeez you gotta love her
Wants to be a Nun but her mother wouldn’t let her
So she and Tommy kinda - got together
Now she’s six weeks late.
Chorus:
Some say, they’re just saving face
But I believe that the stars have moved
And each of them has found their saving grace.
3.
See, Tommy’s not a girl and Tommy’s not a boy
He’s something in between and dancing is his joy
He’s got a troupe together and they’re out on the road
Most of the time.
4.
Ah Jessie, now Tommy really loves her
She lets him have his life and she’s a perfect mother
They have got their act together, its a little bit strange
But that’s no crime.
Chorus:
Bridge:
I’m tryin’ to tell their story, not tryin’ to justify
But I can’t show you Tommy’s smile
And the light in Jessie’s eye.

Some say, they’re just saving face
But I believe that the stars have moved
And each of them has found their saving grace.
Yes, each of them has found their saving grace.
