Winsome Smile

Lyrics

Stop thinking now
 Quit second guessing all your failed relations
 With your would've, could've, should've, maybe
 Might have been, I'll show you how
 Send your feelings out for lubrication
 Lose these blues and screw your head on tight again
 She cut you bad, your heart is just a scar
 But if you could just get mad, you'd be better off by far
 What you want is taken, what you need is better circulation
 Work that heavy heart and get it light again
 Listen to me now, you suffer from a sadness, apprehension
 That if she could read your mind she'd see
 Just how it ought to be but she's read it all by now
 And your style don't get a grip on her attention
 She ain't in your state of mind and she don't want to be
 You think if she'd just talk, you could explain it all
 She'd be polite but all night, she's been hoping you won't call
 She'll, it's all her fault, she'll always be your friend
 Plus loads of shit, too dumb to mention
 I've been that road and it's paved with good intentions
 Well, it's hard to believe
 But I'm telling you your heart would soon recover
 But you don't want it to, you love this aching agony
 'Cause it's noble, but it's true
 You won't forsake this pain for other lovers
 Happiness would fill your mind with misery
 Time will wound all heels and it ain't pretty
 With any luck at all, she'll find some dope that you can pity
 Your loss is measured in illusions
 And your gain is all in bittersweet intelligence
 And your winsome smile will lose some of its innocence
 Your winsome smile, your winsome smile
 Will lose some of its innocence
