M People - Smile Lyrics

A glance back at the time I spent with you
I know you feel the same way too

A kiss to wipe away the tears
Can't keep on pushin' back the years
We gave up this thing long ago
Just like the stream forever flows

This ain't devotion and it's not defeat
I'm trapped in a kitchen can't stand the heat
Like tears falling from a wounded sky
Let's leave it here, it's time to say goodbye

You're not the man who used to make me smile, oh no
I guess I should be movin' on
You're not the man who used to make me smile, oh no
I guess I should be feelin' strong

Would it make you happy if I said I cared for you? Oh no
Spread my warmth around you in the cold night air

Walk with me up to the edge
Looking over at our life ahead
I may seem a fool to you
In everything I say or do

But I know this is our fate
I think we're past the sell-by date
The encores through, the show at an end
Consign me to history but stay my friend

Stay my friend

You're not the man who used to make me smile, oh no
I guess I should be movin' on
You're not the man who used to make me smile, oh no
I guess I should be feelin' strong
