This Smile Means Lyrics

Here are the lyrics to "The Song."

I was very broken for awhile...separation/divorce & 9/11, it all happened at the same time. My friend wrote this amazing song for me, about me. I wish you could hear the version where Erik plays the guitar and sings, but I need to upload to some "free" music site in order to be able to tag the file to post here. I'm not comfortable doing that.

Anyway, here you go!

This Smile Means

I can see you’ve been walking a lonely mile,
And you don’t want to talk about it,
But I bet that you could use a smile,
Whatever has brought you down this far,
Must have hurt so much
To cause a flicker in the light you usually are,
I won’t ask you how you’re doin’, because I know,
How hard it is to say that you feel fine, when you don’t

But This Smile Means,
I’m thinkin’ about you,
‘N This Smile Means,
I’m hopin’ for your best,
Because I believe that you will see
Love has plans for your happiness,
There always is a rainbow,
There’s always a new dream,
Until it comes, I hope you know,
All that This Smile Means

I don’t know why life sometimes knocks us down,
So we have to face our fears,
‘Til somehow we reach a higher ground,
No one can tell you what you should do,
But I know you’ll find your way,
‘Cause even when you doubt, I still believe in you,
So when everything starts changing, going insane,
Know this smile I offer you will always stay the same,

‘Cause This Smile Means,
I’m thinkin’ about you,
‘N This Smile Means,
I’m hopin’ for your best,
Because I believe that you will see
Love has plans for your happiness,
There always is a rainbow,
There’s always a new dream,
Until it comes, I hope you know,
All that This Smile Means

Yes, the future’s still unwritten,
Love has something up it’s sleeve,
But until it is revealed remember

All that This Smile Means

All that This Smile Means

Love the fact that your friend cared so much, and wrote you such a song full of promise. I bet your smile lights a room up.
