And You Smile


[1st v:]

Sometimes
We all look around
See people smiling

All the while
We're walking through
All our sorrows
Falling on the ground

Asking
Wondering

Just what does it take
Why do we all
Make so many
Mistakes

The I look to the side
One who never thinks twice
Has nothing to hide

So calm....so serene
Never angered
Holds so much
Never cruel....knows all of what it can mean

After awhile
Just one more glance
There you go
Say a word or two
And you smile....

[1st ch]

We take so much
Everyday
In our lives
We sometimes miss out
On that special touch

Slow down
Look around

It can be happening
In the most humble town

One who knows more
That their weight in gold
They don't direct
What they're living for

You learn
Yeah
Sometimes....sometimes
We wake up and then we know
Not always do we need
To boil over and burn

Take your time
It may take awhile
But then suddenly....

It'll be you
And you'll smile

It'll be you
And you'll smile

[2nd v:]

Can we all be that way
Doubtful....

But
That doesn't mean
You can't try
Try to bring a little more
Happiness
To your every night
And....every day

How do they do it
They never bear anger in their
Heart and mind

Unfortunate events
Oh well....
You'll get over it

Do your best
And drive

No need to wonder why
Certain ones
Just stand out
Way above the rest

No....
Its not happening
Holding on to nothing in the way

Look over at you
And you smile
Its not going
To be such a bad day

As long as I laugh
Every
Every day

More and more
Unhappiness is cut more
Than just in half

How's it going
Its alright

Just alright....
Thats good enough
Its all
Alright

[2nd ch:]

We take so much
Everyday
In our lives
We sometimes miss out
On that special touch

Slow down
Look around

It can be happening
In the most humble town

One who knows more
That their weight in gold
They don't direct
What they're living for

You learn
Yeah
Sometimes....sometimes
We wake up and then we know
Not always do we need
To boil over and burn

Take your time
It may take awhile
But then suddenly....


It'll be you
And you'll smile

It'll be you
And you'll smile

~ Inspired by my friend/ co-worker, Jared....he is so unique, more so than the many people I have known....a person under extreme pressure [ moments at work ] and can keep smiling....always wants to sing or say things to make others laugh....he lives life so care free [ has not a whole lot, but works hard for what he and his family do have, and always appreciates everything ],  is always happy....never frowns, and hides nothing....when I am in a bad mood I can just glance over at him, and he'll do or say something to make me laugh, never fails! But the pure persona is amazing, there is no cover letter to this person....if every one could be and feel like him, we would all have better days.... Once I just had to ask, " Don't you ever get mad? " he tried to fake a frown then smiled and laughed, saying " Nah....why bother ? " ~
