Uncertain Smile

Peeling the skin back from my eyes
I felt surprised
That the time on the clock
was the time
I usually retired
To the place where I cleared
my head of you
But just for today
I think I lie here and dream

I've got you under my skin
where the rain can't get in
But if the sweat pours out
just shout
I'll try to swim and pull you out

A howling wind that blows the litter
as the rain flows
As street lamps pour orange colored shapes
through your windows
A broken soul
stares from a pair of watering eyes
Uncertain emotions
force an uncertain smile

I've got you under my skin
where the rain can't get in
But if the sweat pours out
just shout
I'll try to swim and pull you out
