Turn away from the pain you don't want

Turning down to avoid them when they call

Strange words I heard a long long time ago

I wish I could go back to a summer time

I knew more than twenty years ago

Lay between the sheets we lie underneath the maple tree

Now I can't smile

Lying down in the grass with the wind around us as we smile and talk

Listen to your Grandma sing those country songs

She'd tell us how the maple turns to fire every four years

We'd lay in the grass all summer just to watch the autumn come around

I can't smile

Now I can't smile

I live alone and you're so far away

I call you every year just around the holiday

I still see you in the night lying above me in the grass

I can't smile

Turn away from the pain you don't want

Turning down to avoid them when they call

I can't believe this letter that says you died

I think I'm gonna go back to the house in North Carolina and lay in the backyard

Get drunk and let the leaves just bury me

Bury me

I can't smile

Now I can't smile

I don't know what's happening to me

I don't know what's happening to me

I can't smile
