Winsome Smile Lyrics

Stop thinkin' now
Quit second-guessing all your failed relations
With your would've, could've,
Should've maybe might-have beens

I'll show you how
To send your feelings out for lubrication
Lose these blues and
Screw your head on tight again

She cut you bad -
Your heart is just a scar
But if you could just get mad
You'd be better off by far

What you want is taken
What you need is better circulation
Work that heavy heart and
Get it light again

Listen to me now
You suffer from a sad misapprehension
That if she could read your mind
She'd see just how it oughta be

But she's read it all by now
And your style don't get a grip on her attention
She ain't in your state of mind
And she don't wanna be

You think if she'd just talk
You could explain it all
She'd be polite, but all night She's been hoping you won't call

She'll say it's all her fault
She'll always be your friend
Plus loads of shit too dumb to mention

I've been that road and
It's paved with good intentions

Well it's hard to believe
But I'm tellin' you your heart would soon recover
But you don't want it to
You love this achin' agony

'Cause it's noble, boy and it's true
You won't forsake this pain for other lovers
Happiness would fill your mind
With misery

Time will wound all heals and
It ain't pretty
With any luck at all she'll find some dope
That you can pity

Your loss is measured in illusions
And your gain is all in bittersweet intelligence
And your winsome smile will
Lose some of it's innocence

Your winsome smile,
Your winsome smile will
Lose some of it's innocence
