If tomorrow I could just wake up beside you See the morning sunlight spill across your face Through the window that looks out on our front porch Where I can hear the bare feet of our children play Well that might be a place I'd like to stay If I could buy a boat I'd cross an ocean But I ain't got enough to buy a clue So I lie here on the floor And hand myself a couple more And I wonder how I'll make it back to you And the truth is love, that's all I ever do Oh but I'll paint on a smile And I'll pretend that it's alright And die a little more underneath this damn spotlight Tell myself this time round I'll get it right That's a lie that I tell myself to just get by I know you got boys sleeping there beside you Both with curly hair and eyes so blue I know it's hard after awhile But I miss every smile Finally I realize the truth And the only good thing I ever did to you Oh but I'll paint on a smile And I'll pretend that it's alright And die a little more underneath this damn spotlight Tell myself this time round I'll get it right That's a lie that I tell myself to just get by Oh but I'll paint on a smile And I'll pretend that it's alright And die a little more underneath this damn spotlight Tell myself this time round I'll get it right But that's a lie that I tell myself to just get by
