lyrics

Don't want to leave you in the lonely place
want you to be happy forever
afraid if I go you'll die alone
thinkin you were alone forever

smile to me so that I can leave
smile to me dance around

You held my hand love me so much
now I can't hold on much longer

Smile to me dance around ( 3x)

constant darkness clouded my light
watching you battle all your demons
I could stay with you in the fight
or be alone in my freedom,

Let me know youre on solid ground
can't have you spiralin down
I'll cry but for your good, I'll be gone
so be strong, be strong

Smile to me dance around ( 5x)
