Gracie


This is a song by a group that Deacon and I have enjoyed together, Ben Folds. We danced to a song at our wedding reception (Luckiest). When the song Gracie came out, Deacon danced with Madeline to it. Ever since then, she is convinced that it is actually Deacon singing...to her. Every once in a while Madeline and daddy have a sweet little dance to this song. Anyways, one of Fiona's nicknames has been Gracie and so Madeline decided to sing this song to her, only she mixed up the words at the chorus to "And there will always be a part of me that Nobody else will ever want to see...Gracie girl."



"Gracie" by Ben Folds


You can't fool me, I saw you when you came out
You got your momma's taste but you got my mouth
And you will always have a part of me
Nobody else is ever going to see
Gracie girl

With your cards to your chest walking on your toes
What you got in the box only Gracie knows
And I would never try to make you be
Anything you didn't really want to be
Gracie girl

Life flies by in seconds
You're not a baby Gracie, you're my friend
You'll be a lady soon but until then
You gotta do what I say

You nodded off in my arms watching TV
I won't move you an inch even thought my arm's asleep

One day you're gonna want to go
I hope we taught you everything you need to know
Gracie girl

And there will always be a part of me
Nobody else is ever gonna see but you and me
My little girl
My Gracie girl
