A Certain Smile...
I’ve waited for your call
But it never came – not at all
I thought you were the one
To give me the earth, the moon and the sun
My heart was molded to fit yours
It was bent and softened – it even grew a little more
I hoped and prayed
That you would come to stay
That my life would change
That something would remove the stain
Erase all the loneliness
Replacing it with happiness
I looked past a few things
Hoped that you could bring
To me a certain smile
That would last me awhile
