THE SMILE ON YOUR FACE
lyrics: J. Morse © 1985
There you stand
In the light refracted through a window
Watching all your precious time go by
Moving on
Shuffling uneasily from place to place
With a smile on your face
False charm deceived you
Busted dreams they broke your heart
A false start on your latest plans
So start again
Well, what a cruel joke it is, you know
You started believing your own lies
And dreams controlled you
Why did you let go?
Hold me
Let your dreams come alive
And lift you to the sky
Try to see
The sun is in your eyes
And blinding you to me
Talk to me
Tell me what's on your mind
And I will listen carefully
Look and see
What you have left behind
And maybe I can guide you back
There you stand
Fists at your side, and looking helpless
But don't despair, the light is on its way
Put yourself
Cautiously yet firmly in my place
And keep the smile on your face
Hold me
Let your dreams come alive
And lift you to the sky
Try to see
The sun is in your eyes
And blinding you to me
Talk to me
Tell me what's on your mind
And I will listen carefully
Look and see
What you have left behind
And maybe I can guide you back
