Day After Day, Your Smile Was Never There

I gave you my love and thoughts,
Where did they go?
They're not with you,
They went somewhere I don't know.

I tried to do the impossible and make you smile,
I've tried for a while to brighten up your day,
But time after time,
You're still the same.

Wish you were happy with me,
Wish I could make you feel great.
But chances are in life
It wasn't meant to be this way.

Why can't I make you have hearts in your eyes,
Why is it that everyday we grow less and less alike?
Why can't I make you feel great to be mine,
All these "why's" run through my head, day and night.

Just smile a rare smile once for me,
Make me feel great to have you by my side.
Try and laugh a great laugh, not forced.
Get me convinced that you're just fine.

Just once show your love for me.
It's all I want because I have a thought
That we're not meant to be.
And thoughts of me not loving you was a lie I fought.

And, yet, day after day, your smile was never there.
