A Little Smile

(album: Fast Forward - 2015)

With just a little smile
We'll straighten it out
Yeah, even a fight like this
You gotta start somewhere
And not with a kiss
Maybe a little word
Following on
From another word or two
Put them together
Soon we can break on through

Someone else might come with another plan
Someone else could be twice as smart
I'll put one foot in front of the other
No other way I can make a start

With just a little joke
We're getting somewhere
Even on a night like this
It doesn't have to be funny
These things are hit and miss
But just a little smile
Is better than that
Better than a pot of gold
You can't ask for more than
Something that won't grow old

Someone else might come with another plan
Someone else could be twice as smart
I'll put one foot in front of the other
No other way I can make a start
