smile

A Smile, A Smile, A Smile Verse 1 Thought I’d write a simple song, And not make it run too long, Thought I’d make it sing and ring, And live a little while in time. Verse 2 So sing of joy and sing of love, Of hellos and goodbye, Sing to birds that wheel above, Beneath the open sky. Verse 3 Sing of sunshine days ahead, And all the good old times, Little words the heart has said, Still dancing in the mind. Chorus Please don’t go away without a smile, A smile, a smile, a smile, Stay with me a little while, A while, a while, a while. Please don’t leave the day behind Without that light you give, Please don’t go away without a smile, A smile, a smile, a smile. Verse 1 Thought I’d write a simple song, Wouldn’t let it run too long, Just a tune you hum along Anywhere you go. Thought I’d make it sing and ring, Like the way the old bells swing, Little words that mean a thing More than we may know. Verse 2 Sing of joy and sing of love, Hellos and goodbye, Sing to birds that fly above Lazy summer sky. Sing of sunshine on the way, Good times coming soon, Every ordinary day Needs a happy tune. Chorus Please don’t go away without a smile, A smile, a smile, a smile, Stay with me and sit a while, A while, a while, a while. Take a little song along the road, Let it make things right, Please don’t go away without a smile, And everything’s alright. Verse 3 If the world feels far too fast, And the day goes rushing past, Hold a moment, make it last, Sing it soft and slow. Every face we pass today, Every place we roam, Needs a little song to say You are not alone. Chorus (big sing-along) Please don’t go away without a smile, A smile, a smile, a smile, Stay with me and sit a while, A while, a while, a while. Take a little song along the road, Let it make things right, Please don’t go away without a smile, And everything’s alright. Outro (group voices) La la la, la la la la, Sing it all the while, Don’t you go away without a smile, A smile, a smile, a smile.
