He can see it in her eyes
The things that she would hide
But what's the point in that he says
I'm the guy who knows you the best
When she says things are okay
She doesn't mean it in that way
Cause she hurts more than she lets on
He's gonna stop it cause its wrong
Face your problems every day
In the stiffer upper lip way
But if you ever let that slip
He'd appear just like magic
The one thing that she didn't plan
A man who'd understand
He confronts her and she backs down
Another smile swapped for a frown
But what's the point in that he says
I'm only doing what I know's best
But still her silence fills the air
Can't she see how much he cares?
Face your problems every day
In the stiffer upper lip way
But if you ever let that slip
He'd appear just like magic
She wears her sadness like a crown
He wants to take her to above the ground
Just to see a single smile
Makes this shit seem all worthwhile
But she don't want his help no more
She cries so much her eyes are sore
He knows its time to let her go
She didn't want to see him anymore
Face your problems every day
In the stiffer upper lip way
But if you ever let that slip
He'd appear just like magic
He's like a dream that wont come true
Even if you wish him to
You ask a lot if he is real
Slipped into love on a banana peel
Won't ever give her self away
Or let him have his say
Cause if you do it makes you vulnerable
And all the things he will promise you
Don't mean a thing
But when your dreams hit the reef and sink
She knows he'll be there, just like magic.
