Majesty Of Life

Phoebe Snow · Other Songs - Phoebe Snow

Oh, majesty of life, please don't escape me

It's getting later and the window shades are drawn

I'm not the best that I can be and I'm trying to wait and see

What can happen to a girl in her hometown

And oh, the wilderness

The unmade bed, the aching head

And oh, the graying afternoon

The diary that ends too soon

Oh sweet belief in love, I know you're somewhere

No love is perfect but a true one must exist

It's getting farther down the year, I hope my autumn eyes will clear

And let me recognize his soul when we have kissed

And oh, the wilderness

The unmade bed, the aching head

And oh, the graying afternoon

The diary that ends too soon

I'm not the best that I can be but I'm trying to wait and see

What can happen to a girl in her hometown

And oh, the wilderness

The unmade bed, the aching head

And oh, the graying afternoon

The diary that ends too soon
