The First Smile Verse 1 I was the kid they always walked right by, The one with both eyes on the floor. Every laugh echoed somewhere else, But never knocked on my door. Every morning I’d whisper, “Please… let someone notice me.” Just one hello, just one hand, To prove I was meant to be. Pre-Chorus I never needed everyone, Just one heart to say, “Come sit here… You don’t have to be afraid.” Chorus You smiled at me… Like I finally belonged. You smiled at me… Like there was nothing wrong. One little “hi,” one gentle light, Turned my darkest day so bright. You smiled at me… You’ll probably never know… You saved a heart that day. Verse 2 You sat beside me without thinking twice, Like kindness was the easiest thing to do. You laughed with me, never at me, And somehow I believed in me too. It was only one recess, Just a moment in your day. But for me it became a memory That never faded away. Chorus You smiled at me… Like I finally belonged. You smiled at me… Like there was nothing wrong. One little “hi,” one gentle light, Turned my darkest day so bright. You smiled at me… You’ll probably never know… You saved a heart that day. Outro If you ever wonder If a smile can change a life… I’m living proof That it can.
