And when I see that smile...

I've had a hard day,
I've been dragged down every way,
I've had my knees tire,
Can't wait till I can retire.

I've had a long day,
Listening to what people say,
Telling them to shut the hell up,
Just run outside for my coffee cup

And then I see you,
And the world starts to revolve again
Cause when I see you,
Colors seem to resolve again.

And when I see that smile,
I'm just speechless for a while,
I'm amazed, feeling so dazed,
Every time I see that smile.

I got troubles, just lots of troubles,
I got no hundreds, just fivers and doubles,
My bank keeps calling all the time,
Gotta tell them I ain't got a doggone dime,

People around me, all rising higher,
I see them come and go and aspire,
And I don't really want to be that high,
I just want to be a regular guy.

And then I see you,
And I wanna fly high again.
Cause when I see you,
I wanna soar into the sky again.

And when I see that smile,
I'm just speechless for a while,
I'm amazed, feeling so dazed,
Every time I see that smile.

Winters coming, I know I'll catch a cold.
I'm weak in the lungs, always been told.
Wrap up warm, they tell me every time,
But I just want a cold sweet soda lime.

I wanna catch a cold, if that means I can,
Be who I want, be a spontaneous man,
I'll deal with cancer, if I know I'm free,
Right now, to write my own history.

And then I see you,
And I wanna live longer that I ever did
Cause when I see you,
Life means more that it ever did.

And when I see that smile,
I'm just speechless for a while,
I'm amazed, feeling so dazed,
Every time I see that smile.
