Smile by eli. (USA) Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2018

[Verse 1]
I wanna make her think, I wanna make her feel
Something that she never has, I wanna give her something real
Used to being hurt, I wanna show her something better
I wanna be her everything, I wish that I could let her

But I can't- ’cause I'm too insecure, I need to work on me
Every time that I get close, I'm like a market- always flee
Is it the commitment? Why can’t I seem to stick with it?
Always getting distant, never feel enrichment, become nonexistent

[Hook]
And every time that I get close
Always seem to let it go, never seem to hold my own
But there's something different 'bout you

[Chorus] x2
You got that smile
You got that smile
You got that smile
It makes me wanna stay a while
It makes me wanna stay a while

[Verse 2]
I wanna be myself, I wanna love again
I'd commit myself, give anything if I could let you in
Went to therapy, that didn't help, I didn't question it
Past relationship got me torn up, I don't feel too fit

I don't wanna put you through what I went through
No need to repeat offend and that’s why I’m so scared of you
I'm just scared that I’ll become exactly what I hate, now it's far too late
Wish that I could execute, but that's not me, that's not my fate

[Hook]
And every time that I get close
Always seem to let it go, never seem to hold my own
But there’s something different 'bout you

[Chorus] x2
You got that smile
You got that smile
You got that smile

It makes me wanna stay a while
It makes me wanna stay a while
