Yes I smile
But behind it
Lies a pain
That I would like to forget
I am mourning you
Crying the blues
Praying to God
Because I don't know
What to do
Yes we had our ups and down
Either way you were always around
This pain is killing me inside
No one knows the reason
Behind the tears that I cry
I try hard to deal
Hoping that it won't
Take too long for me to heal
The pain right now
Is so unreal
Some of it is guilt
Wishing that I had
More time
So that the closure
Would turn out right
From the looks of it
The pain ending
Appears to be nowhere in sight
People just don't know
Nor could they ever understand
No matter how hard they try
No one knows the reason
Behind the tears that I cry
