On the surface everything seems right no one notices the dimness of the light |
|
For the world outside our door our smiles are oh so bright |
|
On the surface everything's all right |
|
We have the grace of actors on the stage |
|
We orchestrate the moves that complement the play |
|
But the things that we believe in we just throw them away |
|
On the surface everything's okay [ guitar ] |
|
We say goodnight and then we close our eyes |
|
To drift in different worlds far from each other's sight |
|
Dreaming of yesterday when we held each other tight |
|
And on the surface everything's all right |
|
What are you thinking tonight |
|
I don't know you (I don't know you) |
|
My words disappear in the night and there's no one there to notice |
|
Maybe our lives will never be the same |
|
But we can face tomorrow if we can just get through today |
|
I'm holding back the tears while you're pushing me away |
|
But on the surface everything's okay yeah on the surface everything's okay |
