she dreams and sees a smile

 She dreams and sees a smile 

And she'd rather not wake for awhile

She'd given up as much too late

And broken truth is hard to shake

She never expected to feel this way

Or want a chance to take

An unexpected thing

To make a broken voice sing

Blithey, blindly going along

Life threw a sneaky curve

Suddenly made stupid songs

Seemed like more than words

A beauty unperfected

A love that thought rejected

But fate is a cruel wind blown

She realized she'd been wrong

Left standing on her own

Grasping at a half heard song

But still, she dreams and sees a smile 

So she'd rather not wake for awhile
