It's only twenty hours ahead
But I'd rather be at home instead
I'll act as if I'm older, and wiser
And its not like i could ever lie to her
When she damn well knew it wasn't true
With a face that's turning a certain shade of blue
Ohh, you know I've spent so long saving you from tears
It's gotten far too easy to fake that smile
Ohh, you know nothing can bring back these twenty years
It's gotten far too easy to fake that smile
And we will love each other tonight
Now she's forever dead and gone
But I'll 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 that's turning a certain shade of blue
Ohh, you know I've spent so long saving you from tears
It's gotten far too easy to fake that smile
Ohh, you know nothing can bring back these twenty years
It's gotten far too easy to fake that smile
And she still said, I'll be forever whispering in your ear
Another gentle lie of this is not the sun
We all sat down and we all sang,
Whoa, and we'll keep this alive until the day that we die
We all sat down and we all sang,
Whoa, and we'll keep this alive until the day that we die
Ohh, you know I've spent so long saving you from tears
It's gotten far too easy to fake that smile
Ohh, you know nothing can bring back these twenty years
It's gotten far too easy to fake that smile
The day that we die
