Smilin's Just A Thing I Used To Do
Sad Reflective Country Ballad
Hi...I do a lot of different types of stuff. It's all just for fun and I hope y'all have fun with it as well.
Story behind the song
This is the companion song to "Still the Same"...which is also posted here.
Lyrics
Wakin’ up just ain’t the same without you , all at once I’ve come to realize
How much you loved the man you saw in me, and how I took the magic from your eyes.
Most of what you gave I took for granted, I never knew how much I needed you
But now your love’s just something that I used to feel
And smilin’s just a thing I used to do
From far away the broken dreams of yesterday haunt the darkened corners of my mind
And though I thought I’d won, no matter how I run
I just can’t seem to leave it all behind
There’s nothing but an empty road ahead of me, as I look for love without a clue
‘Cause now you’re just another girl I used to know
And smilin’s just a thing I used to do
Morning comes and I’m awake alone again
Even though there’s someone lying by my side
And every night I’ve had to face a cold, dark wind
While I suffer through those dreams I can never realize
Now I stand alone before the mirror, how much longer must I face the truth
Your touch is just another fading memory
And smilin’s just a thing I used to do
Happy is just something that I used to be
And smilin’s just a thing I used to do
