pretty amazing grace

• son zamanlarda çok sık dinlediğim neil diamond şarkısı. "showed me that love and truth and hope and grace were all i needed" sözleriyle özellikle etkiler. tam da ihtiyaç duyduğum anda..
• radio eksen vasıtasıyla keşfedilen şahane şarkı. yeni başlangıçların şarkısıdır kanaatimce, ilk huzur ve ilk coşku aynı anda pek bi leziz ifade edilmiş. bahar geldiğinde çok kırmızı sek trakyaya meze olacağı da muhakkaktır aynı zamanda. evet biraz da ekşi elma
  
  "i came to you with empty pockets first
  when i returned i was a rich man"
  
  2008 çıkışlı home before dark albümünden. sözlerini de yazalım tam olsun;
  
  pretty amazing grace is what you showed me
  pretty amazing grace is what you are
  i was an empty vessel
  you filled me up inside
  and with amazing grace
  restored my pride
  pretty amazing grace is how you saved me
  and with amazing grace, reclaimed my heart
  love in the midst of chaos
  calm in the heart of war
  showed with amazing grace
  what love is for
  you forgave my insensitivity
  and my attempt to let it mislead you
  you stood beside a wretch like me
  and pretty amazing grace was all i needed.
  stumbled inside the doorway of your chapel
  humbled and awed by everything i found
  duty and love surround me
  freed me from what i fear
  ask for amazing grace
  and you a appear
  you overcame my loss of hope and faith
  gave me a truth i could believe in
  you led me to a higher place
  showed me amazing grace
  when grace was what i neeed
  look in a mirror i see your refection
  open a book you live on every page
  i fall and you’re there to lift me
  you share every road i climb
  and with amazing grace
  you ease my mind
  i came to you with empty pockets first
  when i returned i was a rich man
  didn’t believe love could quench my thirst
  but with amazing grace, you showed me it can
  in your amazing grace i had a vision
  from that amazing place, i came to be
  into the night i wandered, wandering aimlessly
  found your amazing grace to comfort me
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  pretty amazing…
  you overcame my loss of hope and faith
  gave me a truth i could believe in
  you led me to that higher place
  showed me that love, truth, hope, grace
  were all i needed.
