Smile

Sometimes I sit at home and wonder how it'd be if he had loved me

Truly loved me, yes

I learned a while ago that kind of thing never happens for me

And so I

Go around and just pretend love is not for me

I play the circus clown around my friends

Make 'em laugh and they won't see

That you never let 'em see you sweat

Don't want them to think the pain runs deep

Lord knows, it's killin' me

So I put on my make-up, put a smile on my face

And if anyone asks me, everything is okay

I'm laughing 'cause no one knows the joke is on me

'Cause I'm dying inside with my pride and a smile on my face

On my face

Singin' la, la, la, la (La, la) La, la (La, la, la, la, la, la) La, la

(La, la) Ooh (La, la) La, la

Sometimes I sit at home by the phone, hopin' that he might call me

(Call me, call me, call me, call me) But the don't call me

But then I realize, dreams come true aren't for girls like me, not like me

And so I

Go around with my head up, like it ain't no thang

And when the boys are out with all my friends

Come into other things

'Cause you never let 'em see you sweat

Don't want them to think the pain runs deep

Lord knows, it's killin' me

And so I put on (My make-up) Put it on, put it on

(Put a smile on my face) A smile on my face

(And if anyone asks me) Ooh, yeah (Everything is okay) Oh

I'm laughing ('Cause no one) No one, no one (Knows the joke is on me)

But I'm dyin' inside with my pride and a smile on my face

On my face

It's not an easy (Thing to do) Sometimes it's hard to (Face the truth)

It's not the life that I would choose (I would choose)

But what else can I do if he don't love me? No

If he don't want me

I'm not about to sit around, let myself (Go) Go

So I put on my make-up (Put a smile on my face)

I put a smile on my face

(And if anyone asks me) Everything is okay (Everything is okay) Oh

I'm laughing 'cause no one, no one (Knows the joke is on me)

But I'm dyin' inside with my pride and a smile on my face

On my face

Singin' la, la, la, la (La, la) La, la (La, la, la, la, la, la) La, la

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la) Oh, keep singin' la, la

(La, la) La-da-da, (La, la) La-da-da (La, la, la, la, la, la, la) La, la

(La, la) La, la (La, la, la, la) Ooh, keep singin' la, la

(La, la) La (La, la. La, la, la, la, la, la) La, la, la, la, la

(La, la, la, la) Oh, keep singin' la, la

(La, la, la, la) Ooh (La, la, la, la, la, la) La, la

(La, la, la, la, la, la)
