[Verse]

I'm lying here listening to music

I'm thinking back to that walk 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 'bout the world

And what we've done for fun

Our plans o fortune and fame


[Chorus]

I see that flicker you try to hide

It's there in your smile in the corners of your mouth

That flicker, I see it in your eyes

You don't even know it's 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


[Verse]

It's been a mission to get to you

I remember a time it felt awkward to hold your gaze

Now naturally we fall into place

Every little movement you make you do with grace

And if you stay let's talk about the world

And somewhere in the sun let's plan our fortune and fame


[Chorus]

I see that flicker you try to hide

It's there in your smile in the corners of your mouth

That flicker, I see it in your eyes

You don't even know it's 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


[Bridge]

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


[Chorus]

I see that flicker you try to hide

It's there in your smile in the corners of your mouth

That flicker, I see it in your eyes

You don't even know it's 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
