On The Surface Lyrics

On The Surface lyrics

On the surface everything seems right no one notices the dimness of the
light

For the world outside our door our smiles are oh so bright

On the surface everything's all right

We have the grace of actors on the stage

We orchestrate the moves that complement the play

But the things that we believe in we just throw them away

On the surface everything's okay

[ guitar ]

We say goodnight and then we close our eyes

To drift in different worlds far from each other's sight

Dreaming of yesterday when we held each other tight

And on the surface everything's all right

What are you thinking tonight I don't know you (I don't know you)

My words disappear in the night and there's no one there to notice

Maybe our lives will never be the same

But we can face tomorrow if we can just get through today

I'm holding back the tears while you're pushing me away

But on the surface everything's okay yeah on the surface everything's okay
