Well I move around incessantly, but I long for something sedentary
Not long enough to stagnate, not long enough to gel
But I can't keep still and I know just why I'm a-fraid I might get satisfied
And what would then become of all this anger that I sell
(Chorus)
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe, it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
To keep myself from feelin' oh so small
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain fall
Yeah, then she'll run and make a curtain call
I know love ain't always a fairytale, but I tell you baby it's just as well
A heart must know the tears for it to recognize the laughter
And my heart keeps laughin' most of the time, and you gave me yours and I gave you mine
And that is quite enough for my happy ever after
(Chorus)
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
To keep myself from feelin' oh so tall
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain to fall
Hey, then she'll runs and makes a curtain to call
(Chorus)
Oh, I'd like to think that maybe it's more than smoke and mirrors baby
To keep myself from feelin' oh so tall
But the girl behind the curtain hides, so you can't see her hurtin'
And then she'll turn to watch the curtain to fall
Hey, then I run and make a curtain call
