Lyrics Uncertain Smile - The The

Uncertain Smile

Peeling the skin back from my eyes —
— I felt surprised —
That the time on the clock was the time —
— I usually retired
To the place where I cleared my head of you —
But just for today… I think I’ll lie & dream of you.
«I've got you under my skin — where the rain can’t get in,
— But if the sweat pours out — just shout
— I'll try to swim & pull you out.»
A howling wind that blows the litter — as the rain flows —
As street lamps — pour orange colored shapes
Thru your windows —
A broken soul — stares from a pair of watering eyes.
Uncertain emotions — force an
— Uncertain smile.
