Smile At You

Lyrics

Go on, save yourself
Leave the key here
You love someone else
I shouldn't be here
Don't ask me why
You know the answer
If she's so willing, little one
There was no chance there

I have come to know
This world of changing faces
I can't fight the world
I can't change it
So be true to me
My walls are flamin'
If she's so willing, little one
I won't be staying

Ahh
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can
Ahh
I should have...
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can

I am older now
But I still remember
I took the greatest fall
I can't accept her
So be true to me
My walls are flamin'
If she's so willing, little one
I won't be staying

Ahh
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can
Ahh
I should have...
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can

Ahh
Turned away and ran
I should have...
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can
Ahh
I should have...
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
Fast as I can
I should have...
Just as fast as I can


What you did not need
Was a woman who was stronger
You needed someone to depend on you
I could not be her
I did not want to
My first mistake was to smile at you
Smile at you

Go on, save yourself
Leave the key here
You love someone else
I shouldn't be here
Don't ask me why
You know the answer
If she's so willing, little one
There was no chance there

Ahh
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can
Ahh
I should have...
Turned away and ran
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
Just as fast as I can

Ahh
Turned away and ran
I should have...
I should have turned away and ran
Ahh
As fast as I can
I should have, I should have...
Just as fast as I can

Go on, save yourself
Leave the key here
You love someone else
I shouldn't be here

Go on, save yourself
Go on, save yourself
I shouldn't be here
I shouldn't be here
Shouldn't be here...


Smile At You was a demo way back in 1979, and is most probably about Lindsey, and it's been angry and soft. This one is less angry than the 1979 "angry" demo.

How depressing, though, "my first mistake was to smile at you"? Touche!
