Just because it doesn't seem to hurt me
Just because I never speak my mind
When I'm gone you think I'm gone without you
Just because it doesn't seem to hurt me
Just because I never speak my mind
When I'm gone you think I'm gone without you
And that I'll leave all my love behind
Just because I never want to face it
Just because I never answered why
When we're close you feel that you're much closer
And that my eyes can no longer cry

But you'd never know by the sound of my voice
You couldn't tell by the clothes that I wear
But if you look a little closer at me
You'll see there are lines in my face that don't come from smiling

Just because I can't remember everything
Just because it seems that I'm coasting by
When I smile it only makes you sorry
And when I'm here it only means goodbye

But you'd never know by the sound of my voice
You couldn't tell by the clothes that I wear
But if you look a little closer at me
You'll see there are lines in my face that don't come from smiling
