Never Seen You Smile Lyrics

I cannot presume to know the depths of your depression
You do not pretend to care
And I cannot assume to know the source of your expression
But it's the same every time I'm here

You say "Hey" when I step in
And I ask, "how you been?"
But kind words do not return a grin

Whoa child, haven't seen you for awhile
Maybe, maybe it's just your style
But again, and every time I've walked this aisle
I've never, never seen you smile

I cannot seem to even budge your resentment
Despite my most clever ploy
And I wish I could be the source of your contentment
And give you just a little piece of joy

You say "Hey" when I step in
And I ask, "how you been?"
But kind words do not return a grin

Don't you know my intentions are good
With language so sincere
If I could I surely would
Make this anguish disappear

Never seen you smile
Never seen you smile
Never seen you smile
I've never seen you smile
