Smile

Turn off the lights and shut the blinds I couldn't sleep at all last night With all this running through my mind I don't know why I even tried I'm feeling twice the age I am My body's acting up again I try to do the best I can So I could be a better man But I finally got that devil off my shoulder So hell, I think I've earned the right to smile For just a little while Put that kettle on the stove So I can warm up these old bones Think of us when we were young We thought the world was made of gold But we were selfish and naive With our heads so full of dreams Now that time has come between Things aren't as pretty as they seem But I finally got that devil off my shoulder So hell, I think I've earned the right to smile For just a little while For just a little while Things aren't like they used to be And that's alright with me I was a liar and a cheat, but hey… There's worse things you could be But I finally got that devil off my shoulder So hell, I think I've earned the right to smile And I hope you get that devil off your shoulder Maybe yours could keep mine company Yeah, that'd be just fine with me
