Neal Avron - Learning How To Smile lyrics

[Verse 1] Five miles outside of Vegas when we broke down Threw my keys inside the window and we never looked back We got all drunk and sloppy on a Greyhound bus We pa**ed out, all them losers - they were laughing at us I will never let them break your heart No I will never let them break me [Verse 2] We got lost in Phoenix, seemed like such a long time Seven months of living sweaty on those thin white lines Did some time for selling acid to the wrong guy Life just keeps on getting smaller and we never ask why [Chorus] Why there is no perfect place, yes I know this is true I'm just learning how to smile and that's not easy to do I know there will come a day when we can leave And just go running away (ooh yeah) [Verse 3] We was broke outside of Philly when the storms came I was working in New Jersey hitching rides in the rain You was happy talking dirty at that phone s** place Life just keeps on getting weirder for us every day [Hook] You say there is no perfect place, I say I know this is true I'm just learning how to smile and that's not easy to do We both live for the day when we can run away Ah baby we can leave and run away Yes we can leave this place and run away We can leave it all behind like we do every time Yes we both live for the day When we can leave and just go running away No I will never let it break your heart No I will never let it break me [Verse 4] Five miles outside of Vegas five years down the line We got married in the desert in the sunshine I can handle all the hell that happens everyday When you smile and touch my face, you make it all just go away Yes I know there ain't no finish line I know this never ends We are just learning how to fall And climb back up again I know there's nothing perfect I know there's nothing new We are just learning how to live together Me and you You know I live for the day When you say, "Baby let's just run away" Ah baby we can leave and run away Yes we can leave this place and run away (repeat to fade)
