Van Morrison - I Have Finally Come To Realize lyrics

I have finally come to realise
Child don't do what I have done
Cut my nose to spite my face
Made my own odds 10, 000 to one
I saw the Empire slowly fade away
Tried to grasp it with my hand
Then I saw that it was not up to me
I'm just one tiny, tiny grain of sand
Oh, sweet release, oh how you soothe me
When I let go, I love how you use me
I have finally come to realise
It's something they're doing that they're
Doing that we find
A certain way that we can live our lives
And I'm takin' some peace of mind
Oh, sweet release, oh how you soothe me
And when I let go, and when I let go
I love how you use me
I have finally come to realise
It's something they're doing that they're
Doing that we find
A certain way that we can live our lives
And I'm takin' some peace of mind
I have finally come to realise, yes I have
Child don't do
Child don't do what I have done
I cut my nose, I cut my nose to spite my face
I made my own odds 10, 000 to one
I cut my nose to spite my face
I made my own odds 10, 000 to one
One more time i cut my nose, I cut my nose
I cut my nose to spite my face
I made my own odds 10, 000 to one
