Learning How To Smile
Five miles outside of Vegas when we broke down.
Threw my keys inside the window and we never looked back.
We got all drunk and sloppy on a Greyhound bus.
We passed out, all them losers, they were laughing at us.
I will never let them break your heart.
No, I will never let them break me.
We got lost in Phoenix, seemed like such a long time.
Seven months of living sweaty on those thin white lines.
Did some time for selling acid to the wrong guy.
Life just keeps on getting smaller and we never ask why,
why there is no perfect place.
Yes, I know this is true.
I'm just learning how to smile and that's not easy to do.
I know there will come a day when we can leave and just go running away.
We was broke outside of Philly when the storms came.
I was working in New Jersey hitchin' rides in the rain.
You was happy talking dirty at that phone sex place.
Life just keeps on getting weirder for us every day.
You say there is no perfect place.
I say I know this is true.
I'm just learning how to smile and that's not easy to do.
We both live for the day when we can run away. Aw, baby,
we can leave and run away.
Yes, we can leave this place and run away.
We can leave it all behind like we do every time.
Yes, we both live for the day when we can leave and just go running away.
No, I will never let 'em break your heart.
No, I will never let 'em break me.
Five miles outside of Vegas, five years down the line.
We got married in the desert and the sunshine.
I can't handle all the hell that happens everyday.
When you smile and touch my face you make it all just go away.
Yes, I know there ain't no finish line.
I know this never ends.
I'm just learning how to fall and climb back up again.
I know there's nothing perfect, I know there's nothing new.
We are just learning how to live together, me and you.
You know I live for the day when you say, "Baby, lets just run away."
Ah, baby, we can leave and run away.
Yes, we can leave this place and run away.
Baby, we can leave and run away.
We can leave this place and run away.
Baby, we can leave and run away.
Yes, we can leave this place and run away.
