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

In My Place (OurVinyl Sessions)

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
