A smile
A smile
I never had it as a child
That day I met you it turned upside down
That's when things stop crashing wild
What was on my face
it was cut from ear to ear with a file
I think they call that
A smile
I'm back in those childhood days
Hoping and dreaming
for each and every new day
Something to come around
To cut my face one more time
It's all I hope and dream about
something simple what should be mine
A smile
