Blue Absolut
(You Knew All Along)

By Jessie

She laughed when he walked in,
And smiled through her bottle of gin,
At those big blue eyes that would save her life,
When the splendor of the day wore away.

Blue Absolut, and she’s entirely sure,
He’ll be the one to pick her up off the floor,
Wipe the tears away and open a new chardonnay
Baby girl, didn’t you know he’d be there?

Oh, she understands you, baby,
And she knows you’ve got a heart of gold
She knows the secrets everyone’s got,
And don’t you doubt she has her own.

But God, ain’t it good to love
For once, holding bourbon and smile
The living feeling that you’ve found the one
So he’ll ask her to stay for a while.

Blue Absolut, and he’s got big news,
He’s got a new Rolex, and new Prada shoes,
He knew she’d be waiting with a smile still unfading,
Jack, you should have known she’d be there.

See the full smile of one well accustomed
To the finer things of what life does offer.
See the smile of one well accustomed,
Sly child, you knew all along he’d be there.
Sly child, you knew all along she’d be there.
