Steven Strait - Smart In A Stupid Way lyrics

She had eyes like crazy diamonds and you ran with feet of clay We rolled the windows tight as they would go, it was a smoggy day She looked up and asked me if I ever had a lover that I did not betray And I turned on the radio and I looked the other way She said you're smart but in a stupid way And this is the price that you pay for being smart in a stupid way You stand there staring while your lover walks away Being smart in a stupid way The doors, they close like eyelids, the train just pulled away Sometimes I smell the perfume that she was wearing that day And I wonder if there's anyone that I'll ever love in any way Maybe I'll grow up and be good someday Maybe this pain I feel will go away And this is the price that you pay for being smart in a stupid way You stand there staring while your lover walks away Being smart in a stupid way So why is my heart so hollow? And why are my dreams so shallow? And why don't I ever have anything else to say? And why is my love so far away? And this is the price that you pay for being smart in a stupid way You stand there staring while your lover walks away Being smart in a stupid way
