Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by
[Verse 2]
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shinin' through
For you
[Verse 3]
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
[Verse 4]
That's the time you must keep on tryin'
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worth while
If you'd just smile
[Verse 5]
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
[Verse 6]
That's the time you must keep on tryin'
Smile, what's the use of cryin'?
You'll find that life is still worth while
If you'd just smile
