I re-recorded a version of “Remember How to Smile” (early demo and explanation available here) with MIDI drums and better string mixing.
Lyrics:
It’s simple in theory; Got to get you near me
But these days words fail me; you’re passing, I’m right be-
Chorus
-hind the dotted line, waiting for you to give me a sign
But I don’t mind: I’m keeping all the love I find
It’s been a while, but I can still remember how to smile
I wait for your answer; makes my heart beat faster
Just the thought of your kiss; I hope that it’s just be-
Chorus
And if I grit my teeth and bear it, it’s not so scary
Thinking of you in the arms of someone other than me
I can almost see… I can almost be the one, but you’ve got to let me know
You run and I catch you; that’s not what ‘just friends’ do
No bats in my belfry; hope to find myself be-
-side an open mind, and counting as the stars align for you and I walking in the sand, our hands entwined
And in time, I know that I can make you mine if you don’t mind
I don’t want to be unkind,
Is it all right if dreaming of you keeps me up all night?
It’s simple in theory; got to get you near me
So come closer…
Chorus
So come a little bit closer now, come on closer darling
