Testo Smile

With your note stuffed in my pocket
A smile spread across my face
I pretend it doesn’t matter
When I read that you won't stay

I guess I could have left the light on
Or stayed awake to see you home
But good intentions go unnoticed
And I fare better on my own

I was struggling to walk a straight line
When I met you months ago
I thought by now that I’d be better
At being loved and lettin' go

But words can start to feel familiar
When all I wanted was a change
Still, I found a home within it
And I loved you all the same


I guess I could have lеft the light on
Or warned you I was so unsure
But still thе wind it blew you my way
And it didn’t matter anymore

I let the silence come between us
I let my pride take its place
But I’ve still got your note for readin'
When you're gone and on your way

I guess I never had no patience
For doin' things a different way
I guess I could have left a light on
With a smile apon my face
