That Smile

I was see-through
Rebounding like a rubber ghost
And numb and naked
And shot from pillar into post
And bruised
Till they joined and turned into a shade
The sum of mistakes that I'd made
And suddenly you turned your face and smiled

And it was
Sunshine
Breaking through a rainy day to see a
New smile
Waking up the avenue
Even
Daylight
Is finite but come night
That smile is the only thing on my mind

From out of nowhere
You hit my grief like Novocain
And for a moment
You made me feel 3D again
And how
From deep in the eye of the storm
An entire person was born
I remembered I'd beaten this thing before

And it was
Sunshine
Breaking through a rainy day to see a
New smile
Waking up the avenue
Even
Daylight
Is finite but come night
That smile is the only thing on my mind

And it was
Sunshine
Breaking through a rainy day to see a
New smile
Waking up the avenue
Even
Daylight
Is finite but come night
Your smile is the only thing on my mind

Sunshine
Breaking through a rainy day to see a
New smile
Waking up the avenue
Even
Daylight
Is finite but come night
Your smile is the only thing on my mind
