My Brave Face

My brave
My brave
My brave face.

1. 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.

[Chorus:]
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.

2. 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.
