As if things don't always look at what they have seem Behind those smiles you found shredded dreams Dirty things do happen but don't let it be said Pain and heartache, babe, it's also very sad Love is a strange thing that makes us blind, yeah It creates a world where truth is hard to find But here I am babe Listening to your words of sorrow You must have failed back then if there was no tomorrow But listen, here only the strong live on Life is all about expression, you got to carry on, yeah Drive a smile out the past or those are tears in you eye You can trust me baby, tell me And if you want you just cry Now take it down low, now Nobody wanted to help, see or believe All you got babe is pain, misfortune and grief Truth can be harsh and sometimes very strange You got to live on, fight back and try to rearrange Thanks for telling me, babe And seeing me as your friend Thanks for believing me woman, until the very end Now feel this blues tamed
