i fake a smile,
so you can be happy.
i keep my thoughts about her inside,
so you can be happy.
i'm there for you always, even if she isn't,
so you can be happy.
***
what would you say, my love, my love,
if i stopped faking smiles,
and show how i really feel?
what would you say, my love, my love,
if i shared my thoughts about her?
they aren't so pretty.
what would you say, my love, my love,
if i turned away and was gone?
i won't though.
so you can be happy.
