You said you'd love me No matter what I did-- I understand
You said it was alright To have bad days-- I understand
You said that I could Make my own decision-- I understand
You said it was okay If we disagreed-- I understand
I understand that they were Empty words And that in actuality You want me to be A Sunshine Girl All the time
I understand. I'll go back to faking my smile. I'll go back to crying in secret. If you want me to be happy I will be. Don't worry about me-- If you ever have, I mean. It's alright. I understand.
If you don't want me to show you who I really, please don't say you do.
