lyrics

I've always said hello I’ve always waved goodbye
At least I thought I did alright I never tried
The thought of what you'd say maybe some other day
The thought of knowing you will this come my way
I've always wanted to I've always said I should
I always said I would and now I wish I could
I saw your smile shine not that long ago
The though of knowing you all so far to go

All you have to do is walk on by
And all you have to do is simply smile smile smile

You never asked me you never knew
What I was up to then I feel so blue
I'm falling harder now I cannot sleep
I'm climbing mountains yeah they’re really steep
I know I'll figure out, and you will too
It's all we have now girl, just me and you
Just not together I'll earn your trust
I'll always love you yes I always will

All you have to do is walk on by
And all you have to do is simply smile smile smile

Why why why why'd I ever let this go
A chance to let you know it’s time I'll say I'll try
How how how can we say we did our best
It's time to figure out or put this thought to rest

I made a promise girl it's one I’ll keep
You just don’t know it yet it runs so deep
I'll make a new life now I'll get it straight
Please know I meant well no it's not too late
