I burned my hand, and I cut my face Heaven knows how long it's been Since I've felt so out of place Wonderin if I'll fit in
Debbie and Charlie said they'd be here by nine And Deb said she might bring a friend Just my luck, they're right on time So here I go again
(Chorus) I'm gonna smile my best smile And I'm gonna laugh like it's goin out of style Look into her eyes and pray that she don't see That learning to live again is killin me
Little cafe, table for four But there's just conversation for three I like the way she let me get the door I wonder what she thinks of me
Debbie just whispered you're doin fine I wish that I felt the same She's asked me to dance, now her hand's in mine Oh my God, I've forgotten her name
Repeat chorus
Now here we are, beneath her porch light And I say what a great time it's been A kiss on the cheek, a whispered good night And I say can I see you again
And she just smiles her best smile And she laughs like it's goin out of style Looks into my eyes and says we'll see Oh this learnin to live again is killin me God this learnin to live again is killin me
