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 your
fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come
shining through for you
Light up your face with
gladness
Hide every trace of
sadness
Although a tear may be
ever so near
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 just smile
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 just smile
