You turned me away

Away from your actions 

Forced by the violence 

That always surrounds you 



I want your special smile 

A smile in this crowd 

I want your special smile 

A smile in this crowd 



You burnt yourself out 

In that silence 

I have to tell you 

I ache for you still 

The sound of my words 

Is always so shocking 

They get much louder 

Each time I speak 



I want your special smile 

A smile in this crowd 

I want your special smile 

A smile in this crowd 



Signals of progress 

We're growing much older 

I'm afraid that I'll leave 

And my ache never goes 



I want your special smile 

A smile in this crowd 

I want your special smile 

A smile in this crowd
