No one can love me the way that you do

I was the captain of my own ship of fools

I fled to the ocean, I aimed for the stars

Still your face was the light that kept me away/safe from the dark

So I say please, please

 

Girl, you see me smiling

Girl, I’m singing words of joy to the world

Between the lines

It’s hidden in a smile, can’t you hear a cry for love?

 

I jumped to the water, I swam to the shore

Turned up at your doorstep, I slept on your floor

I woke up in panic, I dreamt you were gone

I stood there in silence with the damage I’d done

So I say please, please,

 

Girl, you see me smiling

Girl, I’m singing words of joy to the world

Between the lines

It’s hidden in a smile, can’t you hear a cry for love?

I’ll  keep on smiling

Girl, I’ll keep on playing my songs to the world

Between the lines

It’s hidden in a smile, can’t you hear a cry for love?
