Smile

(album: Ever Since You Never Heard Of Me - 2010)

Take no prisoner, leave no trace, make no wave
Freedom's illusion, home of the rich and the slave
Cynics and critics, making the news, creating a scene
Destiny lies in the fools who refuse to give up on a dream

And I love people who smile
If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world
I love people who smile
If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world

Wear it well and it could appear in your heart
Indelibly printed on someone a world apart
Lights in the window all through our darkest day
Human kindness outdistances being afraid

And I love people who smile
If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world
I love people who smile
If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world

"I don't trust the American smile. They smile for nothing
I think it's to disarm you or something"
"No, I don't think so. I smile because I want to make some kind of a connection
I look at someone and I think... we're connected"

I love people who smile
If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world
I love people who smile
If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world

(You sing) I love people who smile...
(Me) If everybody smiles, we'll have a hometown all over the world
What a wonderful world
