Smile - Part I , Adapted

- By Candy Mazze.

1. If at times you feel you want to run
And life seems such a trial
Above the clouds there’s a bright yellow sky
So make your tears a smile.
 
2. As you travel on life’s way
With its many lefts and rights
Remember it’s quite true to say
One smile is worth 20 fights.
 
3. Among the world’s expensive things
A smile is very cheap
And when you give a smile away,
You get one back to keep.
 
4. Joy comes at times to all
And excitement comes unbidden
But sometimes a few tears must fall
Although fast, and hidden.
 
5. So when friends show struggles on their face
And troubles round them piled
The world will seem a better place
And all because you smiled.
