Smile
(music and lyrics by Chad Perrone)
Your hair falls just the way I remember
Hard to believe it’s been two years, this December
There’s something calming in your voice,
The way you talk about your dreams and your choices
Decisions to leave, hard to believe that we were almost something
Your eyes light up with a spark when you talk about your life and your loves
I don’t remember you being so strong, but it’s so fitting, love.
Now look who you’ve become
And look who I once was to you
I won’t stand in your way; you seem better these days
But I’m reminded of all the mistakes that I’ve made
Just forgive me if I pretend once in a while
That it’s me making you smile…
All those secret nights we spent in my parent’s basement
Locked in embrace, with your hands on my face - a quiet safe haven.
You used to believe in us, regardless of how I acted
I had your love in my hands, but I’m alone again
How did this all happen?
I should have loved you when I had the chance.
(Chad A Perrone, Chad Perrone Music, ASCAP)
