Lyrics

THE SMILE OF A WORRIED MAN

I wear the smile of a worried man
Trying to fool the world any way I can
No place to hide nowhere to run
Staring down the barrel of a loaded gun
But the sun still shines
And a lover’s touch
Still makes my tired heart sing
And so I’m keeping in my mind
What’s worth remembering

Well I don’t want to see the future
But I’m tired of living in the past
Well I knew there’d be big changes Lord
But I didn’t think they’d happen so fast
I didn’t think they’d happen so fast

I make no claims of innocence
I say no words in my own defense
No honor lost, no cross to bear
The proof surrounds me everywhere
But as time unwinds
One thing I’ve learned
That haunts me still to this day
If you run from every bridge you burn
They never go away

Well I don’t want to see the future
But I’m tired of living in the past
I knew there’d be big changes Lord
But I didn’t think they’d happen so fast
I didn’t think they’d happen so fast

But as time unwinds
One thing I’ve learned
That haunts me still to this day
If you run from every bridge you burn
They never go away

I’m not looking for resolution
So I’ll spend each day like it’s my last
Well I’m so damn full of questions lord
But I never know who to ask
And I don’t want to see the future
But I’m tired of living in the past
I knew there’d be big changes Lord
But I didn’t think they’d happen so fast
I didn’t think they’d happen so fast
