Return & Smile

Sillyfaced baby cracks up her head

She says: "I've been here for a while,

I've been away but I always return.

It's kinda funny but I don't know why",

She says: "It's hard, on every little high

I return and smile

I am conditioned I have got a routine

to keep the language to myself

I guess I've settled for much less I admit

But now the good's not good enough

nothing exceeds excess although I try

I return and smile

Sometimes the weather's all that changes up here

'cause it's all we seem to talk about

I've been away but I always return

It's kinda funny but I don't know why

I guess it's hard, on every little high

I return and smile"

A dozen roses don't make up the deceit

but they sure do smell alright

when do you play yourself against the amidst the disease

and pick up all you left behind

and be yourself, when thorns are all you find

I'll return and smile

I return and smile

I return and smile

Sillyfaced baby crack up your head

you say you've been here for a while

you've been away but you always return

It's kinda funny but I don't know why

you say: "It's hard, on every little high

I return and smile"

Lady day is singing one for the road

and just one more for the baby she loves

I guess she's been here for a while I don't know

but I can hear what she's talking about

she says: "It's hard, on every little high,

I return and smile."
