Matthew Sweet - Behind The Smile lyrics

rate me

I haven't been a good friend

For a long long time

You know I wasn't happy

Behind the smile

Anywhere you look

A reason to believe

But I think of what it took

To bring me to my proper place

And I haven't been a good friend

For a long long time

I haven't been a good friend

While you've been mine

Now am I by your side

Or standing in your way

'Cause if this is a sign

I don't know what it's sposed to mean

And I haven't been a good friend

For a long long time

I haven't been a good friend

While you've been mine

I have seen my perfect day

I have watched it fade away

You know I'm fighting to be real

I haven't been a good friend

For a long long time

You know I haven't been happy

Behind the smile
