Lyrics:
I wonder why
You spend so much time
Staring at the sky
Always feeling outside

When you call, I come
When you call I come
When it's over and done
Over and done
A game nobody won
Nobody wins (I said nobody wins, no)
A song already sung
Already sung

All I want, is for you to smile
I haven't seen it in such a while
All I want is for you to smile
Even just for a little while

Feeling counter clockwise
Its too late to cry (Well its too late to cry)
One last backslide

When you call, I come
When you call I come
When its over and done
Over and done
A game nobody won
Nobody wins (I said nobody wins, no)
A song already sung
Already sung (Sing it now)

All I want, is for you to smile
I haven't seen it in such a while
All I want is for you to smile
Even just for a little while

All I want, is for you to smile
I haven't seen it in such a while
All I want is for you to smile
Even just for a little while
