Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You make me smile

You make me smile

[Verse 2]

I think it's safe to say

Things just haven't been goin' my way

No work comin' in, so my money's thin

And I still got bills to pay

But all in all, you've been right here with me

When I'm sinkin', oh, you come through and lift me

It's nothing more than the love that you give me

Keeps me from drownin' in tears

[Verse 3]

(You make me smile)

Whoa, you make me smile

(You make me smile)

You come through and save me, baby

(You make me smile)

You make me smile

(You make me smile)

In a very special way

[Verse 4]

Everywhere I go, people seem to ask me

Where I get my joy, why am I so happy?

In these trying times when a frown is the fashion

I'm beamin' like the sun, now how can that be?

See, the answer to the query is very simple

I'm always grinnin' from dimple to dimple

Because you love me unconditionally

My happiness is heart-shaped, can't you see?

[Verse 5]

(When you are gone)

Can't you see when you're gone, girl?

(When you're gone, away from me)

(Don't know what to do)

I just don't know what to do

(Don't know what to do)

(Everything)

'Cause everything about you, girl

('Cause everything, everything, everything, everything, everything)

Everything revolves around you

(Revolves around you)

[Verse 6]

(You make me smile)

And I wanna thank you for makin' me smile

(You make me smile)

You came through and saved the day

(You make me smile)

You make me smile

(You make me smile)

Oh, in a very special way

[Verse 7]

(You make me smile)

You make me smile, ooh

(You make me smile)

Love the way you make me hold my head up high

(You make me smile)

You make me smile

(You make me smile)

Feel like I can walk in the sky

[Verse 8]

(You make me smile)

When nothing's goin' my way, what else can I say?

(You make me smile)

When I can't see the light, here you come, shinin' bright

(You make me smile)

When everything's bad and I'm feelin' real sad

(You make me smile)

When I don't have the answers, you always give me a chance to smile

(You make me smile)

Smile, smile
