Knife

lyrics

Your smile cuts me like a knife
ever since you took it from my life.
Your teeth they form the serrated edge.
Being cut by it has been my privilege,

and I could be the one sitting next you.
posing awkwardly as he is known to do.

Hey baby, you wear your thoughts so well
but lately they've been putting me through hell.
Your big brown eyes are the windows to my soul.
How is it you've grown and I'm the one who's old.

and I could be the one sitting next to you
posing awkwardly as he is know to do.
and I could be the one standing next to you
asking awkwardly as he is known to do.

and I will carry this until the day I die.
and I don't want to stop I don't even want to try.
Though the time you spent in my life was not long
oh for that time you made me feel so strong.

and I could be the one sitting next to you,
and I could be the one standing next to you,
and I could be the one taking care of you.

Your smile cuts me like a knife.
