Grace
Amy Martin Lyrics

She was out wandering alone
She was alone with her thoughts and wandering around without any specific destination.

Holy, but unknown
Although she was pure and innocent, she was not known to anyone, and her identity was a mystery.

She could have gone on and on that way
She could have continued living her life the way she was, unnoticed and unacknowledged.

But she came unto this place
But then one day, she arrived at a certain place.

And she found a friendly face
And she met someone who was kind and empathetic towards her.

And she took the name of Grace
And this person named her 'Grace', possibly because of her pure and amiable nature.

So you see her at the store
Now, people can see her around at places such as a store, implying that she has come out of her shell.

Or in the woods, or on your doorstep
She can be spotted anywhere, be it in the woods or at someone's doorstep.

And you want to know more
People are curious about her as they've sensed a unique aura around her and want to know more about her life.

I want to know more
The singer, too, expresses her yearning to know more about Grace.

Grace, I want to know you
The singer addresses Grace and expresses her interest in getting to know her better.

Grace, will you show yourself to me
She implores Grace to reveal herself and let her understand her true self.

Grace, what would you say
She asks Grace what she would say if the singer proposed to her at that moment.

If I asked you to marry me today
If the singer asked Grace to marry her today.

Are you the marrying type
The singer inquires if marriage is something that Grace would consider.

Come share my life
The singer invites Grace to share her life.

Grace, can I see you tonight
The singer requests Grace if she can meet her tonight.

With a scent as fresh as soil
The scent that she has about her is as fresh and pure as soil.

And a smile that will spoil you
Her smile has an impressionable effect and will leave a lasting impact on those who witness it.

For all others
For those who interact with her, they will only find her to be 'one of a kind'.

Grace holds you in her arms
Grace is warm and affectionate and will make one feel safer and happier by wrapping her arms around them.

Tender and strong
She is kind and gentle, yet strong when the situation demands it.

And you know you have to be her lover
Anyone who experiences her love will find it hard not to return it.

I want to be your lover
The singer expresses her desire to reciprocate Grace's love and affection.

Chorus
Refrain.

Grace, I have been a fool
The singer admits that they were unwise to have overlooked Grace for so long.

Acting smart, playing it cool
Perhaps, the singer had tried to act smarter than they were and acted aloof with Grace in the past.

I never knew how badly I needed you
Now, that they've realized Grace's worth, they feel an intense need to have her in their life.

Oh let me wear your ring
They express their desire to have a long-term commitment with Grace, possibly marriage.

And I promise I will sing your name
If Grace agrees to be with the singer, they promise to sing praises of her name.

Clear up to the heavens
They promise that they will spread her good name far and wide.

Even the wine needs the cup
The singer acknowledges that they need Grace as much as wine needs a cup to hold it.

So come on in and fill me up
They ask Grace to come and fill their life with love and affection.

Make me the vessel that holds you
They desire to be the one that holds and contains Grace's lovely nature.

Every miracle is made
The singer says that every miraculous transformation occurs when something divine meets something normal.

When sacred meets mundane
When something pure meets something ordinary.

Mix yourself with me, haunt me
They ask Grace to blend in with them and become an inseparable part of their life. They want to be 'haunted' by her presence.

Chorus
Refrain.
