Its only twenty hours ahead
But id rather be at home instead
Ill act as if im older, and wiser
And its not like i could ever lie to her
When she damn well knew it wasnt true
With a face thats turning a certain shade of blue
You know i've spent so long saving you from tears
Its gotten far too easy to fake that smile
You know nothing can bring back these twenty years
Its gotten far too easy to fake that smile
And we will love each other tonight
Now shes forever dead and gone
But ill always be remembering her song
And her lungs can no longer hold her heavy heart
But one more smile would have been a good start
With a face thats turning a certain shade of blue
You know i've spent so long saving you from tears
Its gotten far too easy to fake that smile
You know nothing can bring back these twenty years
Its gotten far too easy to fake that smile
And she still said, ill be forever whispering in your ear
Another gentle lie, of this is not the sun
We all sat down and we all sang,
We'll keep this alive until the day that we die
You know i've spent so long saving you from tears
Its gotten far too easy to fake that smile
You know nothing can bring back these twenty years
Its gotten far too easy to fake that smile
The day that we die
