Save some face, you know you've only got one
Change your ways while you're young
Boy, one day you'll be a man
Oh girl, he'll help you understand
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Some things slide by so carelessly

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around
Down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Oh no, oh no no no
Oh no, oh no no no

She laid in slumber,

but really she was running.

Running on the long narrow road,

trees placed like picket fence on the sides.

Running and running,

why does her persuer still seem so close.

Running and running,

she screams to herself.

The authority was ahead,

but it did not help, it just disappeared into the insignificant hut.

Finally, she ran into help.

And drifted back to her slumber.
