[03:26.00]On The Surface - Bettye Lavette
[03:26.00]
[03:26.00]On the surface everything seems right no one notices the dimness of the light
[03:26.00]For the world outside our door our smiles are oh so bright
[03:26.00]On the surface everything's all right
[03:26.00]We have the grace of actors on the stage
[03:26.00]We orchestrate the moves that complement the play
[03:26.00]But the things that we believe in we just throw them away
[03:26.00]On the surface everything's okay
[03:26.00]We say goodnight and then we close our eyes
[03:26.00]To drift in different worlds far from each other's sight
[03:26.00]Dreaming of yesterday when we held each other tight
[03:26.00]And on the surface everything's all right
[03:26.00]What are you thinking tonight I don't know you (I don't know you)
[03:26.00]My words disappear in the night and there's no one there to notice
[03:26.00]Maybe our lives will never be the same
[03:26.00]But we can face tomorrow if we can just get through today
[03:26.00]I'm holding back the tears while you're pushing me away
[03:26.00]But on the surface everything's okay yeah on the surface everything's okay
