Just Smile

25 Mar 2009

It's that butterflies in your tummy feeling The scream of joy that so wants to be free That laugh that bubbles up at the back of your throat If there's nothing to be done about it You just smile It's all candy floss and bubblegum Clouds and pink feathers It's that little girl hidden somewhere The place where everything works out the way you planned And all you have to do all day is smile Just smile It's fluffy slippers And hot chocolate warming your throat It's campfire stories And mummy's kiss goodnight It's that first love That made you smile Just smile It's kittens and balls of wool Fluffy bunny rabbits Like blowing bubbles And then trying to catch them Bedtime stories Daydreams that make you want to smile Just smile It's the castle's in the air You used to build all the time It's those games you played The ones that needed nothing but a bit of imagination Where everyone could play Those games that made you smile Just smile All the time
