(Verse 1) I practice smiles in public places Hide my doubts behind careful lines I watch my gestures fill empty spaces Chasing feelings I can’t define (Pre-Chorus) I say your name like it’s a question Afraid you might not answer me I hold my breath, waiting for a sign Hoping you’ll notice this heart of mine (Chorus) Every time I think of you Love confusion, sweet intrusion We are stuck on quirks and smiles Love confusion, soft delusion Practiced smiles that almost work (Verse 2) I laugh and look the other way Thinking the things I’ll never say Happiness feels secondhand I clap along, don’t understand (Pre-Chorus) I say your name like it’s a question Afraid you might not answer me I hold my breath, waiting for a sign Hoping you’ll notice this heart of mine (Chorus) Every time I think of you Love confusion, sweet intrusion We are stuck on quirks and smiles Love confusion, soft delusion Practiced smiles that almost work (Bridge) If this is love, it wears a grin If this is truth, it tucks it in I’d laugh it off, but something aches Behind the smiles I must fake (Final Chorus) Every time I think of you Love confusion, no conclusions We are stuck on quirks and smiles Love confusion, soft delusion Practiced smiles that almost work [Hook – Repeat / Fade] Quirks and smiles Quirks and smiles We are stuck on quirks and smiles Quirks and smiles Quirks and smiles We are stuck on quirks and smiles
