Return and smile

She says: "i've been here for a while,
I've been away but i always return.
It's kinda funny but i don't know why",
She says: "it's hard, on every little high
I return and smile

I am conditioned i have got a routine
To keep the language to myself
I guess i've settled for much less i admit
But now the good's not good enough
Nothing exceeds excess although i try
I return and smile

Sometimes the weather's all that changes up here
'cause it's all we seem to talk about
I've been away but i always return
It's kinda funny but i don't know why
I guess it's hard, on every little high
I return and smile"
A dozen roses don't make up the deceit

But they sure do smell alright
When do you play yourself against the amidst the disease
And pick up all you left behind
And be yourself, when thorns are all you find
I'll return and smile
I return and smile
I return and smile

Sillyfaced baby crack up your head
You say you've been here for a while
You've been away but you always return
It's kinda funny but i don't know why
You say: "it's hard, on every little high
I return and smile"

Lady day is singing one for the road
And just one more for the baby she loves
I guess she's been here for a while i don't know
But i can hear what she's talking about
She says: "it's hard, on every little high,
I return and smile.
