lyrics

I never meant to make you cry
Leave you sad and far away
All I wanted was to make you smile
And see you happy everyday

But I've learned that I can't make the sun rise
Or keep your skies from turning gray
I know that I would give my whole life
If I could make you smile again

I don't know how it happened
And I don't want to place no blame
But my heart is slowly dying
And nothing's quite the same

Cause I've learned that I can't make the sun rise
Or the moon rise on the bay
I wish that I could give my whole life
So I could make you smile again

How could this ever happen
How'd the magic slip away
I thought that love was forever
Now I'm begging for one more day

And I've learned that I can live without you
I can survive another day
I know that I would give my whole life
If I could make you smile again
