Smile for me, just one more time
Before I forget a word to rhyme
with smile
Let the air around you be
Don't touch this silence and you'll see
the world slow down in silence
for a while
Just feel the noise, it feels so near
Sow the frown and plant a tear
And in the spring, when summer comes
You realize forgetting is what numbs
feelings that have caused you this denial
Say this smile is not yours to give,
Don't tell me that's the way you live
So you touch the silence with your hand
you hold your world like a grain of sand
Smile, child, and see time stand still
Smile, child, It's such a thrill
Smile
Time's not on your side
It never was, the people lied
And in the morning, when I wake,
I pray a prayer for prayings sake
Don't tell me that to pray is wrong
I sing my life and it's not your song
Don't tell me that to feel is old
I know you feel that I'm too bold
In the night, with eyes so starry
Time had his fun and is not sorry
So why not have your fun with me now too?
Say this smile is not yours to give,
Say it's not your life to live
So you touch the silence with your hand
you hold your world like a grain of sand
Smile, child, and see time stand still
Smile, child, It's such a thrill
Smile
Cut me with your eyes and penetrate my soul
Fill my holy faith with another hole
Kindly break my spirit, dear
When I asked you to listen, you did not hear
You touched the silence and the world flew by
To plant a tear you need to cry
