Gracie
by Bic Runga

Gracie takes the bottles from the porch where you had left
them
There are age-old drinks of wine you never shared.
Drivin' down the motorway, with all the best
intentions,
She a picture of perfection with her cut and coloured
hair.

But it's you she thinks of in the hours while she's
awake
She takes her lipstick from her case to make a smile
You she thinks of when she thinks of her mistakes
regrets an open road that streches out for miles.

Coffee pots, and bottle tops
and all of this disorder
she soaks the plates in the dishwater till it's cold
Her reflection in the window of the stars around the
corner
walk beside her as she's stridin' down the road

But it's you she thinks of in the hours while she's
awake
She takes her lipstick from her case to make a smile
You she thinks of when she thinks of her mistakes
regrets an open road that streches out for
mi-i-i-i-iles
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la

you she thinks of in the hours while she's awake
She takes her lipstick from her case to make a smile
You she thinks of when she thinks of her mistakes
regrets an open road that streches out for miles
