Lyrics Smile - Rickie Lee Jones

Smile

When you first left me
I was wanting more
But you were fucking that girl next door
What you do that for
When you first left me
I didn’t know what to say
I’d never been on my own that way
Just sit by myself all day
I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
Now you’re calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
And it’s only because you’re feeling alone
At first when I see you cry
Yea it makes me smile
Yea it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for awhile
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile
Whenever you see me
You say that you want me back
And I tell you it don’t mean jack
No it don’t mean jack
I couldn’t stop laughing
No I jus couldn’t help myself
See you messed up my mental health
I was quite unwell
I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
Now you’re calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
And its only because you’re feeling alone
At first when I see you cry
Yea it makes me smile
Yea it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for awhile
But then I jus smile
I go ahead and smile
