Letra de Smiling

He's not falling, simply waiting
Fading at the edges
Sitting back, thinking that there's little point in moving
He smiles, says his stars are friendly
Anything can be done
"Shall we get very drunk?"
He says "I stay alive, It's the best thing
The only thing I know."
She's not talking, easy dreaming
All that life away
She gets laughing, missed the light
No regrets today
She looks up, another sunset
"Was it very very good?"
"Shall we get really high?"
She says, "I stay alive, it's the best thing
The only think I know."
She says, "Hold me, hold me hard
Hold me, hold me, hold me harder
Stop me thinking about myself
Stop me hoping for more than I am."
She says, "Why do I want more than good looks?
Why do I want more than great books?
Is that all there is? Is that all there is?"
She smiles and stays alive
It's the best thing, the only thing she knows
They're together, simply dancing all the nights away
There's the window, let's wait up for this precious dawn
He smiles, tells her she looks lovely
Anything can be done
She looks up and laughs
He says "I stay alive
It's the best thing, the only thing I can give you."
I was brought up with higher expectations
I was brought up that hell's a hipper way to go
He says "Hold me, hold me hard...."
