Carve a Smile - Shayfer James

For every tear you’ve shed

I’d carve a smile into my skin

You have the unique ability to damage me

Tread carefully

You have seen too much and in between

From where you’ve been

But tonight, save your eyes

I can’t guarantee I’ll be the one thing you need

But I won’t make a promise I can’t keep

I can’t guarantee that you won’t pick up and leave

But I swear, I’ll make you smile

And with every kiss you make a better man of me

The safe disguise of accidental lies won’t hide us here

No more my dear

I would sacrifice the air that makes my body breath

If it keeps you safe

I can’t guarantee I’ll be the one thing you need

But I won’t make a promise I can’t keep

I can’t guarantee that you won’t pick up and leave

But I swear, I’ll make you smile

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about it

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about it

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about it

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about it

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about it

(I was wrong about life)

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about life

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about life

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about life

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along

But I swear I’ll make you smile

For every tear you’ve shed

I swear, I swear, I’ll carve a smile
