Fake Smile (Live at Air Studios)

Fake Smile (Live at Air Studios) - Rebecca Ferguson

Well I'm not gonna lie

Doesn't work I've tried

I've choked up the bitterness with wine

Calling him up fully drunk

But he declines count on my blessings

And now I'm down to none

He took the piss because I let him

I was good while I was fun

Put on your fake smile

And wipe away your real tears

What's real anyway

What's real anyway

Put on your short skirt

And show him what he'll miss

It's not real anyway

It's not real anyway

So I'm not getting old

Maybe the time and drunk

But I thought we were getting better

And he just smiles as he tells me

I'm not the one this film he's directing

All his feelings are missing

And I'm saying sorry on the fault

For all the awful things that I have done

Put on your fake smile

And wipe away your real tears

What's real anyway

What's real anyway

Put on your short skirt

And show him what he'll miss

It's not real anyway

It's not real anyway

Just when it's over

And not getting older

After all my time

That's smile is real

As real as is

Put on your fake smile

And wipe away your real tears

What's real anyway

What's real anyway

Put on that short skirt

And show him what he'll miss

We've all done it anyway

Let's be real anyway
