Smile

[Verse 1]
I can see your pain has left you locked up, beat down
I can see the fear has made you desperate, burnt out
Too much regret and shattered hope
Sent you slipping down that slope
All I can do is lend a hand, be a friend again
And it’s okay if you want to vent, but

[Chorus]
What I wouldn’t give to see you smile
Once in a while
What I wouldn’t give to see you smile
Once in a while

[Verse 2]
I can feel the bitterness that drains you, poisons you
All those grass-is-greener thoughts, I’m telling you, they’re killing you
You’re not a have-not, can’t you see?
What you’ve got’s so important to me
Measuring your life versus theirs
You’ll always come out ahead in all the ways that really matter, so

[Chorus]
What I wouldn’t give to see you smile
Once in a while
What I wouldn’t give to see you smile
Once in a while

[Bridge]
I can see your pain has left you locked up, beat down
Desperate, burnt out
I’m telling you, it’s killing you, killing you, killing you
I can see your pain
There’s nothing I can say, except

[Outro]
Toil away, and at the end of the day
You can look back on a game well played
Toil away, and at the end of the day
You can look back on a game well played
Toil away, and at the end of the day
You can look back on a game well played
Toil away, and at the end of the day
You can look back on a game well played
