[Verse 1]
If tomorrow I could just wake up beside you
See the mornin' 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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
I know you got boys sleepin' 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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
