It Only Hurts When I Smile
I put a smile on my face when I go outside
My friends all see the pain I try to hide in my eyes
And I try to act like I can make it on my own
Since you've been gone I'm alone
I suppose I'm gonna be here a while
And for the rest . . . of my life
It only hurts when I smile.
.
I thought our love was strong
I didn't think you would leave
I think about about you all the time
Do you still think about me?
and when I think of how I threw us away
It only hurts when I think
.
The first time I laid eyes on you you took my breath away
I lost my breath again the day you walked away
Pain won't go and damage is done
And I just can't feel a thing
It only hurts when I breathe
.
And I see where I went wrong
And I see what I've done
But I don't see you coming home to me
And when I look at it all that way
It only hurts when I see
.
And I just can't live without you
My heart is still in your hands
And there's no "this" left to fix
And there's no "us" left to mend
And I guess I gotta live with it
So it only hurts when I live
.
I put a smile on my face when I go outside
My friends all see the pain I try to hide in my eyes
And I try to act like I can make it on my own
Since you've been gone I'm alone
I suppose I'm gonna be here a while
And for the rest . . . of my life
It only hurts when I smile.
And for the rest . . . of my life
It only hurts when I smile.
