Lyrics
Smile falls
Their eyes have gone
You stall
But not for long
The dream
That you can't realise
Revealed
In all their lives
Chorus
You wrote a card you tried to feel
For all the happiness they yield
You wore a smile across your eyes
For all the thoughts you must disguise
You spoke the words that you had planned
Through all your silent falls, you stand
So lay down somewhere I can see...I can see...your falls.
Each day
Is a passing chance
Time strays
Beyond your dance
Chorus
