Lyrics: I Have Finally Come To Realize
Album: The Philosopher’s Stone
Artist: Van Morrison
 

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
