Smilin' at Me

Your eyes light up when I walk into the room
You smirk when you catch my eye
You know just what you are doing to me

Smilin' at me from across the room
All our midnight conversations fly through my head
Every little memory makes me feel special

You come looking for me after 6 pm
I may show up at your house for dinner
You make me late for curfew 

You call me as soon as you know I'm home
I fall asleep with a smile on my face
I hope you have one too

Dreaming that one day I will wake up next to you
We promise our future together
In two rocking chairs looking back at the past

I'm riding shotgun in your daddy's truck
Holding your hand while you're driving
You're smilin' at me and kissin' me at a red light

That's how we were supposed to be 
I took love for granted thinkin' you were my forever
Yet, all those promises and you still cheated on me

Now, you're smilin' at me from across the parking lot
You know what you did to me and I was a fool
I trusted you with all my secrets

You pushed the boundaries and I let you 
I let you go farther than any boy before you
You still shattered my heart boy

You're smilin' at me from your daddy's truck
Spending all your money on nicotine
The girl broke your heart the way you did me

I was spinning past all the red flags
Just cause you were smilin' at me
I fell hard and you didn't catch me

You knew what you were doing
You just didn't care 
Smilin' at me

We were breaking rules heart broken 
I was heart broken over you 
And you were heartbroken over her

I was destined to leave this good for nothing town 
You were meant to never leave your hometown
Our differences meant that we weren't meant to be

You souped up your daddy's truck 
I can hear it from a mile away 
I wish I still heard it down my driveway

I begged you not to break my heart 
I promised not to break yours
I kept my promise

Been pretending all these boys were you 
But they don't smile the way you do
They don't make me feel like I'm home

I rushed into your arms every day after work
 You rushed her into arms while I was at work
Didn't even have the guts to tell me

Smilin' at me from across the parking lot
Listenin' to my conversations with other boys
Watchin' me move on with your friends

My friends want to tell you off 
Your friends are all trying to get with me
We were never the same 

I was just hoping on forever
You were just waiting for her
