I tried to hide behind bright smiles, bright eyes
Thinking of the lies I’d tell tomorrow
Suddenly your love took me by surprise
I’ve found happiness is the best disguise
So few tend to question sorrow
I tried to hide behind bright smiles, bright eyes
The moment we met, you saw through my lies
No time to discern between friend or foe
Suddenly your love took me by surprise
Though time together is difficult to characterize
Moments with you begin to make me glow
Still, I try to hide behind bright smiles, bright eyes
Yet I find myself willing to sacrifice
Open my heart, let my emotions flow
Suddenly your love takes me by surprise
Time and again, I try to compromise
You force my eyes open, to see, to know
I try to hide behind bright smiles, bright eyes
I’m defeated by love, a welcomed surprise
