lyrics

Smile

He had a winning smile,
And I loved him for a while,
But it was soon over

An intoxicating laugh

Unique as an autograph

But too soon over

Though his touch drove me crazy
His style of love was lazy

Made me loose my composure

Whilst behind his dapper face
He watched my fall from grace
This heartbreak composer

I acted like a fool

Breaking every rule

Now I can't forget

The things that I regret

Wish I'd had more sense

Could have seen the consequence
Of thinking this was love

It didn't do what loving does

Words can be so fluent

When the meanings playing truant
And its so soon, so soon over

But how bittersweet the rush

That comes with a fleeting crush
That is so soon, so soon over
