My Brave Face

My brave
my brave
my brave face.

I've been living in style
unaccustomed as I am to the luxury life

I've been hitting the town and it didn't hit back.
I've been doing the rounds

unaccustomed as I am to the time on my hands

now I don't have to tell anyone when I'm going to get back.

Ever since you went away I've had this sentimental inclination
not to change a single thing.
As I pull the sheet back on the bed
I want to go bury my head in your pillow.

Now that I'm alone again I can't stop breaking down again

the simplest things set me off again and take me to that place
where I can't find my brave face
where I can't find my brave face

my brave
my brave
my brave face. My brave face.

I've been living a lie

unaccustomed as I am to the work of a housewife

I've been breaking up dirty dishes and been throwing them away.
Ever since you left I have been trying to compose a
baby, will you please come home
note meant for you.
As I clear away another untouched T.V. dinner
from the table I laid for two.

Now that I'm alone again I can't stop breaking down again

the simplest things set me off again and take me to that place
where I can't find my brave face
where I can't find my brave face

my brave
my brave
my brave face. My brave face.
