I close my eyes and I see your face A faint trace of a smile that time can't erase I hear a song and it takes me back To a place and a feeling I can't get back It's a beautiful and painful place Between the ashes and grace Where I don't know what to do Between what I want to say And the truth Somewhere between my faith And needing a little proof I'm caught in between the ashes and grace I light a candle in the cathedral Tryin' to balance the pain with the grateful I know you're in a better place, I do But what's a better place without you? It's a beautiful and painful truth Between the ashes and grace Where I don't know what to do Between what I want to say And the truth Somewhere between my faith And needing a little proof I'm caught in between the ashes and grace And I know the Sun will rise again And I know the storm will end But I'm in the middle, my friend And it's hard to see round the bend Between the ashes and grace Where I don't know what to do Between what I want to say And the truth Somewhere between my faith And needing a little proof I'm caught in between the ashes and grace Oh, the ashes and grace Yeah, I'm caught in between Oh, I'm caught in between The ashes and grace
