Smile

When I see you smile there’s nothing I can do. When I see you smile there’s nothing I can do – except smile too. When I see you smile the lines tell a lot, your eyes water up and then they shine - but then they look away and I have to stay alone and wonder why brown eyes don’t say what blue eyes are looking for. When I see you smile I’m no longer unsure. I dare to believe, faith is restored. I pray for the world and so much more. Then you have to dash and my hopes are smashed - my dreams in pieces on the floor but I pick them all up and then dream some more - ‘cause I’ll never give in, I’ll fight, I’m no quitter. Though I might not win, I’m emotionally fitter than most. When I see you smile the world smiles back at me, the clouds move away and it’s a sunny day, my head’s full of love – I’m a sickly cliché. But then you change the plan and I understand that this will never happen here. So let’s go somewhere else where nobody knows who we are – somewhere far away. I know it’s only a dream but some dreams come true - if you believe they do.
