Verse 1
She smiles when she feels like screaming
She sings when she feels like crying
She smiles when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid of anything
Pre-Chorus
And I don't wanna be the reason why
I don't ever wanna make her cry
Chorus
And she forgets what she's worth
When the pain starts to hurt
How can she ever learn to trust when all the stories she was told were just made up
And it's gonna take time, for smiles to outweigh the cries
And it's hard for her to try
Ever since the damage from the lies took away her pride
Verse 2
And she's afraid to love, she's all choked up about her past
From words said in anger that can't be taken back
Panic stricken from the very start
if you ask her what happened, shed lie and say she forgot
Pre-Chorus
And I don't wanna be the reason why
I don't ever wanna make her cry
Chorus
And she forgets what she's worth
When the pain starts to hurt
How can she ever learn to trust when all the stories she was told were just made up
And it's gonna take time, for smiles to outweigh the cries
And it's hard for her to try
Ever since the damage from the lies took away her pride
Verse 3
And she smiles when she feels like screaming
She sings when she feels like crying
She smiles when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid of anything
Pre-Chorus
And I don't wanna be the reason why
I don't ever wanna make her cry
Chorus
And she forgets what she's worth
When the pain starts to hurt
How can she ever learn to trust when all the stories she was told were just made up
And it's gonna take time, for smiles to outweigh the cries
And it's hard for her to try
Ever since the damage from the lies took away her pride
Chorus
And she forgets what she's worth
When the pain starts to hurt
How can she ever learn to trust when all the stories she was told were just made up
And it's gonna take time, for smiles to outweigh the cries
And it's hard for her to try
Ever since the damage from the lies took away her pride
