Flicker

I'm lying here listening to music

I'm thinking back to that book we took the other day

I'm looking over pictures of us sitting in the park with our faces to the sun

We spent all day talking about the world

And what we've done for fun

Our plans for fortune and fame

I see that flicker that you try to hide

I stand there, a smile at the corners of your mouth

That flicker, I see it in your eyes

You don't even know its there

So you forget to hide

I know it's hard for you to love again

Hard for you to trust again

You won't have to look for me

I'm just a smile away

And then you'll learn to love someone again

Learn to trust someone again

It's been a mission to get to you

I remember a time it felt awkward to hold your hands

Now naturally we fall into place

Every little move you make, do it with grace

And if you stay let's talk about the world somewhere in the sun

Let's plan our fortune and fame

I see that flicker you try to hide

I stand there, a smile at the corners of your mouth

That flicker, I see it in your eyes

You don't even know its there

So you forget to hide

I know it's hard for you to love again

Hard for you to trust again

You won't have to look for me

I'm just a smile away

And that you'll learn to love someone again

Learn to trust someone again

I understand your reservations

I hear the pain in the past you mention

Never look back

Never look back

Love comes back around

Love comes back around

See that flicker you try to hide

I stand there, a smile at the corners of your mouth

That flicker, I see it in your eyes

You don't even know its there

So you forget to hide

I know it's hard for you to love again

Hard for you to trust again

You won't have to look for me

I'm just a smile away

And that you'll learn to love someone again

Learn to trust someone again
