I SMILE	rev. P1B
Text & Musik: Kirk Franklin

Damer:

(vers 1 & 2)
Today's a new day but there is no sunshine
Nothin’ but clouds and it's dark in my heart
and it feels like a cold night
Today's a new day but where are my blue skies?
Where is the love and the joy that you promised me?
Tell me it's alright

(brygga)
I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain
fell from Heaven like a shower, now:

(refräng)
I smile, even though I hurt, see, I smile
I know God is working so, I smile
even though I've been here for a while, I smile
Smile
It's so hard to look up  when you get down
Sure would hate to see you give up now
You look so much better when you smile, (so smile)

(övergång)
Smiiiile for me
Can you just smi-i-ile  -  for me?
-
(alt): – Smiiile . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .for me
(sopran): -   -   Smiiile . . . . . . . . . . for me,
Can you just smi-i-ile  -  for me?

(stick-unisont-4ggr)

(stick-stämmor-3ggr)
oh-oh-oh
You look so much better when ya
(stick-unisont-1ggr)

You look so much better when you smile.

(brygga)
