Smiler at 50
Smiler thinks about her mother
She thinks about her life
There was a man she used to know
But he left long ago
Smiler clears away her dinner
She eats alone these days
There was a life she used to lead
But that was just a phase
A girl the dads could laugh with
A face just right for first kiss
A look she thought was Paris
How did it come to this?
Smiler knows there is no future
She knows there's only loss
There was a man she used to know
ANd through him, her blood would flow
Smiler looks into the mirror
Feels powerless, feel pain
There was a time she used to love
She'll never love again
A girl the dads could laugh with
A face just right for first kiss
A look she thought was Paris
How did it come to this?
Replaying memories scene by scene
She feels the rainfall blow by blow
She weeps for places where she's been
And those she'll never know.
She thinks about her life
There was a man she used to know
But he left long ago
Smiler clears away her dinner
She eats alone these days
There was a life she used to lead
But that was just a phase
A girl the dads could laugh with
A face just right for first kiss
A look she thought was Paris
How did it come to this?
Smiler knows there is no future
She knows there's only loss
There was a man she used to know
ANd through him, her blood would flow
Smiler looks into the mirror
Feels powerless, feel pain
There was a time she used to love
She'll never love again
A girl the dads could laugh with
A face just right for first kiss
A look she thought was Paris
How did it come to this?
Replaying memories scene by scene
She feels the rainfall blow by blow
She weeps for places where she's been
And those she'll never know.
