Lyrics
[verse]
People see me laughing, think I'm doing fine
Nobody knows I'm crying on the inside
I put on my Sunday best and a easy smile
But underneath it all I'm broken for a while
[chorus]
Look a little closer, you will see
Look a little closer, past the mask on me
Just below my eyes where the shadows hide
That's the road her memory took when she left my side
Take a good look at my face
You'll see the tracks that sorrow made
[verse]
Friday night the fellas ask me out to roam
I tell them I'm alright but then I go back home
Sit here in the dark and play our favorite song
Wonder how much longer I can carry on
[chorus]
Look a little closer, you will see
Look a little closer, past the mask on me
Just below my eyes where the shadows hide
That's the road her memory took when she left my side
Take a good look at my face
You'll see the tracks that sorrow made
[bridge]
So if you see me walking, smiling at the sun
Don't believe the story, the show has just begun
Behind this happy picture there's a heart in pain
Praying for the sunshine after all this rain
[chorus]
Look a little closer, you will see
Look a little closer, past the mask on me
Just below my eyes where the shadows hide
That's the road her memory took when she left my side
Take a good look at my face
You'll see the tracks that sorrow made
