A Sunday Smile (by Beirut)

All I want is the best for our lives my dear,
And you know my wishes are sincere.
What's to save for the days I cannot bear

A Sunday smile
We wore it for a while.
A cemetary mile
We paused and sang.
A Sunday smile
We wore it for a while.
A cemetary mile
We paused and sang
'Bout Sunday smiles
As we felt clean.

We burnt to the ground
Left a view to admire
With buildings inside
Church of white
Have burnt to the ground
Left a grave to admire
Hills reach for the sky
Reach the church of white.

A Sunday smile
We wore it for a while.
A cemetary mile
We paused and sang.
A Sunday smile
As we felt clean.
