Things ain't like they used to be   A smile, it seldom cracks across your face, these days   And you say the weight of living   Drags you down   Well it's just the same for me - you see   Though, we don't always live in harmony   And we sometimes act like we're enemies   Still, I feel the need to show you I still care   Why can't I touch you   Why can't I hold you   Why can't I reach down inside   To the feelings you hide   Why can't I touch you   Like I used to do, like I used to   Spent the day wrapped up in a blanket   Lying on my bed and feeling down   So down   And I curse the rain   And I damn this wasted time   When I can't find nothing else to do or say      CHORUS      Let me try and put a smile back on your face   Don't let this moment slip away   Turn the finger of blame back onto itself   Try to forgive and to forget      REPEAT CHORUS
