By the grace of God, I do not rest at all
New England as the leaves change
The last excuse that I'll claim
I was a boy who loved a women like a (7)____________ girl
And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
