Smile Like You Mean It

this song is about not letting precious moments pass

Save some face, you know you've only got one Change your ways while you're young -start your life out good, dont make bad habits

Boy, one day you'll be a man Oh girl, he'll help you understand -this is just explaining to a couple, yeah now your just having fun, but later when youre married, you two will be dependent on each other

Smile like you mean it -this is really just saying enjoy life, laugh until you start crying, smile the biggest smile you can, even at its worst life is good!

Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside We lost track of the time -when he was a kid, he didnt appreciate his youthful innocence and simplicity, youth is wasted on the young

Dreams aren't what they used to be Some things slide by so carelessly -his dreams change, hes changed, he let those youthful things slide by

And someone is calling my name From the back of the restaurant -life is going on without you about you

And someone is playing a game In the house that I grew up in -there is a child growing up in his house, making his own memories, thinking about someone else growing up in your old house is chilling

And someone will drive her around Down the same streets that I did On the same streets that I did -even after hes done with a girl, someone else will come along and they both will move on with different lives
