Beirut A Sunday Smile song lyrics

All I want is the best for our lives my dear,

And you know my wishes are sincere.

What's to say of all the days I cannot bear?

A Sunday smile, we wore it for a while

And a cemetery mile we paused and sang

A Sunday smile, we wore it for a while

And a cemetery mile we paused and sang

About a Sunday smile, and we felt clean

We burnt to the ground, left a view to admire

Buildings in sight, church of white

We burnt to the ground, left a grave to admire

The hills reach for the sky, reach the church of white

A Sunday smile, we wore it for a while

And a cemetery mile we paused and sang

A Sunday smile, we wore it for a while

And a cemetery mile we paused and sang

About a Sunday smile, and we felt clean
