Song lyrics
Save some face, you know you've only got one
Change your ways while you're young
Boy, one day you'll be a man
Oh girl, he'll help you understand

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Some things slide by so carelessly

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around
Down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Oh no, oh no no no
Oh no, oh no no no

Lovin this song, and also lovin the video! It's great. There's somethin about spiky hair and eyeliner on a guy and Brandon Flowers pulls it off perfectly in this video - man he's sooo fit!

Ask euromegamouth. I'm sure she'd know. Afterall, she has heard ever song ever recorded by The Killers (besides one).

I like this song a whole lot. I love the song Br. Brightside and I bought the CD so I guess this song is cool too. Oh another good one is Andy your a Star.

oh and (haha sorry, another thought came to me) Does anyone think the "I got soul but I'm not a soldier" part of "All These Things I've Done" sound a bit like Queen?? That totally rocks I think

To all the people who requested the meaning behind this song:
It's very simple, actually. Brandon is basically reminiscing and watching as the world changes and he tells people to be true to themselves and smile like they mean it.
