Smile lyrics

Smile, though your heart is aching

Smile, even though it's breaking

When there are clouds in the sky

You'll get by

If you smile

Through all fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll find the sun comes shinin' through for you, ooh-hooh

Light up your face with gladness

Hide every trace of sadness

Although a tear may be ever so near

'Cause that's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you, you just smile

Oh-oooh, ooh-hooh,

Although a tear is ever so near

'Cause that's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of you crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you, my darling, just, just smile

Smile, darling, baby,

Smile!
