Lyrics

See You Smile

With your face so pale, your stare so empty
If I might could I hold you so gently
For one minute let me take your world away
and for that minute make you feel okay

You’ve been on the losing end too often
All those youthful hopes are now crestfallen
There’s nothing you can do that brings him back
And I’d do anything to change that fact

Just to see you smile
See you smile
for a little while
You have meant the whole world to me
So I’ll be there when you are ready

That I love you more is no secret
It won’t heal history so recent
But if you’re finding comfort in these words
I’ll give you all the love that can be heard

Just to see you smile
I know it's hard to smile...

Pieces of soul shattered on the ground
forever lost; never found
that’s the pain of losing who you love
but what is left is still profound
it’s your life, but I’ll be around
to pick you up and keep you far above
that pain,
that pain,
that pain,
your pain...

...just to see you smile
you have meant the whole world to me
So I’ll be there when you are ready
