Lyrics :
Just tell me why you're so kind
Why you think it's worth to try
Hold on tight
Never change your mind
Let me know what's behind
What you need to mystify
All this time
I was colorblind

How can you be so determined
Holding back your tears and smile
To my lies
If I could rewind
All the words that I can find
Giving hope you can't rely
To keep you fine
Always on my side

I've heard it say before
Like a hundred times or more
That secrets learn to war
Let them blow away
Our love we thought so pure
Is now lying on the floor
I'm feeling insecure
I should walk away

Backing 1
Just tell me why you're so kind
How can you be so determined

Backing 2
Listen to your love
We can all lose our way somehow

Smile To My Lies - Richard Gonfrier Feat. Delphine Portier

雲は流れる

Primarily a fun song that takes a bit of humor from the experience of a guy who tried so hard to be a good husband, a good guy, but ultimately loses out. Bemoans all the sacrifices he made, yet he could never please his wife.   

My special thanks to Nat Daniels for stepping in to add some critical new pieces to my old recording, including some great production work!

Lyrics:
You made my mind up, you turned my head around
You said my time was up, it’s time to settle down
You bought your wedding gown

I tried to follow, I thought I loved you so
So much to swallow, you said I had to grow
I tried it even though...

I didn’t think that I was, all that bad a guy but,
I listened to your kissin’ girl
I just killed myself to go on living

Now you want to, pick up with someone new
Now that I blew, my soul away for you
The things you put me through

You got your lawyer, to take my house from me
Last time I saw ya, you had my LTD
You wouldn’t stop for me

I didn’t think that I was, all that bad a guy but,
I listened to your kissin’ girl
I just killed myself to go on living

You got my toaster, you got my bowlin’ night
You weren’t supposed to, just disappear from sight
It just isn’t right

You got my hair changed, you made me chew my food
You made me sleep strange, just cause it felt so good
I gave you all I could

I didn’t think that I was, all that bad a guy but,
I listened to your kissin’ girl
I just killed myself to go on living
Just to go on living, just to go on living, just to go on living
I gave you all I could

(Rap section)
Didn’t think, didn’t think now
Never thought, I never ever thought how
Didn’t think that I could live without you
Everything about me was about you
I can tell I’m living by myself to go on living

I Gave You All I Could
