My Smiley Eyes
There's no disguize,
it's smiley eyes
she makes it easy to endure;
she can smile,
and all the while
her motives are so pure.
~
She makes her way,
throughout the day
and her day's not always good;
put to the test,
she does her best
and I want that understood.
~
It's nice to see,
someone close to me
still smiling when things go wrong;
for, if you will
I've had my fill
of life's blues-ballad song.
~
If it were I,
I think I'd cry
if it were on my plate;
she's not a fool,
she keeps her cool
and I think that's pretty great !
it's smiley eyes
she makes it easy to endure;
she can smile,
and all the while
her motives are so pure.
