06 Princess Smiles

angie fights crime

from the album “Flooded” featuring Ash Reynolds on vocals

The princess flashes us a smile
But does not talk to those beneath her
Still we all agree
That she’s the fairest of them all
The princess often tries to hide
Behind a pretty waterfall
But the water’s clear
And everyone can see her
It seems like every other day
The princess falls apart
But there’s nothing we can do
Nothing we can do
And yet we take a moment
To return her smile
But just like every time before
She doesn’t say a word and turns and walks away
The princess never tells a lie
And hardly ever disappoints us
And we all agree
It doesn’t matter anyways
Cause when she flashes us that smile
It makes the world a better place
And makes us forget
All our cares and troubles
It seems like every other day
The princess falls apart
But there’s nothing we can do
Nothing we can do
And yet we take a moment
To return her smile
But just like every time before
She doesn’t say a word and turns and walks away
And after years of this you’d think
That she would break the wall between us
And offer more than just a smile
Maybe stay and talk awhile
And we would try to hold her hand
And tell her that we understand
Even though we don’t, how could we
After all we’re far below, her
