Learning How To Smile Everclear Five miles outside of Vegas when we broke down Threw my keys inside the window and we never looked back Got all drunk and sloppy on a Greyhound bus We passed out, all them losers they were laughing at us I will never let them break your heart No I will never let them break me
We got lost in Phoenix, seemed like such a long time Seven months of livin' swimming on those thin white lines Did some time for sellin' acid to the wrong guy Life just keeps on gettin' smaller and we never ask why
Why there is no perfect place, yes I know this is true I'm just learning how to smile That's not easy to do I know there will come a day When we can leave and just go runnin' away
We was broke outside of Philly when the storms came I was working in New Jersey, hitchin' rides in the rain You was happy talkin' dirty at that phone sex place Life just keeps on gettin' weirder for us every day
You say there is no perfect place, I say I know this is true We are just learning how to smile That's not easy to do We both live for the day When we can run away
Oh baby we can leave and run away Yes we can leave this place and run away We can leave it all behind like we do every time Yes we both live for the day When we can leave and just go runnin' away
No I will never let it break your heart No I will never let it break me
Five miles outside of Vegas, five years down the line We got married in the desert and the sunshine I can't handle how the hell it happens every day When you smile and touch my face You make it all just go away
Yes I know there ain't no finish line, I know this never ends But I'm just learning how to fall, climb back up again I know there is nothing perfect, I know there is nothing new We are just learning how to live together, me and you You know I live for the day When you say \"Baby let's just run away\"
Oh baby we can leave and run away Yes we can leave this place and run away Baby we can leave and run away We can leave this place and run away
