And then she smiled That's what I'm after A smile in her eyes The sound of her laughter Happy to listen Happy to play Happily watching her drift away Happily waiting All on my own Under the endless sky Counting the seconds Standing alone As thousands of years go by Happily wondering Night after night Is this how it works? Am I doing it right? Happy to listen Happy to stay Happily watching her drift away If keep on turning pages for people who don't care People who don't care about you And still, it takes you ages to see that no one's there
