Gracie takes the bottles from the porch where you have left them

There are age old dregs of wine you never shared

Drivin' down the motorway with all the best intentions

She's a picture of perfection with her cotton colored hair



But its 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

Regret's an open road that stretches out for miles



Coffee pots and bottles cups and all of this disorder

She soaks the plates in the dishwater 'till it's cold

Her reflection in the windows of the stores around the corner

Walk beside her while she's striding down the road



But its 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

Regret's an open road that stretches out for miles



La la la la la



But its 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

Regret's an open road that stretches out for miles
