Thursday Smile

I fell in love with you on a Thursday afternoon
You were sittin' in choir, singin a lovely tune
You smiled and looked at me, I never thought it would be true
That I'd be standin' here so in love with you

And I cried when you said you couldn't stay
And I tried to make it all go away
Oh dear Lord, I pray

Arm in arm we walked along, talked about life and love
Sang in beautiful harmonies praising our Father above
Then one day I looked at you, didn't know you anymore
Then I saw you with her, my heart dropped to the floor

And I cried when you said you wouldn't stay
And I tried to make it all go away
Oh dear Lord, I pray

Oh, my God, I can not make it on my own
Please reassure me that I'm not alone
No, not alone

You broke my heart again on a Thursday night
You smiled and looked at me, pretending everything was alright
But I saw right through you, yeah, it didn't even take awhile
Oh, I lost my best friend to a Thursday smile

And I cried when because you didn't stay
And I tried to make it all go away

When I cried, He took it all away
All my pride... and now I'm here to say

I fell in love with you on a Thursday afternoon.
