Smile When You Call Me That
Youre gonna say, 'I told you so'
I never should have let you go
Now, aint it funny then here we are
The two of us in two different bars
When separate gauges dancing slow
We aint got nobody to call our own
Now, you can always go back home
Well, you just might be there alone
Now, Im drunk and youre insane
And I cant quit and you wont change
Aint no halfhearted
RomeoWhy do you treat me so?
Like all of the junk
Thats too much to laugh
Well cant you please smile
When you call me that?
Now, days are hotter than you would believe
I aint having luck making ends meet
Time and money then look at me
Im richer than a poor man should be
Price of admission, well its much too steep
For broken, educated clowns like me
But maybe true
I was first to leave
But now Im begging you please
My hearts on my sleeve
And Im tipping my eyes
So cant you please smile
When you call me that?
Not much is sitting but this much is true
My arms are useless if they dont have you
They hang around me with nothing to do
Im hoping you and yours are lonesome too
Neon buzzing and here
I amLast one standing, last call again
While youre unfolding in a strangers hands
Ill drink up and be somebodys man
Angels can walk,
Ive seen it before
They turn handles and they open doors
They act like devils, know youve been warned
They vanish when love is warm
Im down on my knees
And you wont have me back
But cant you please smile
When you call me that?
Im down on my knees
And you wont have me back
But cant you please smile
When you call me that?
