And render myself helpless I breakdown And let the story guide me And everything is clear So I wither And give myself away

And a smile from you Close your eyes and dream of a sunny place Watch the world light up when you smile Stay with me and smile at me, sunny face Chase the clouds away with your smile Make a smile for me Lately I've been so lonely Might make these blues
