Because You Smiled

If at times you feel you want to cry

And life seems such a trial

Above the clouds there's a bright blue sky

To make your tears a smile

As you travel on life's way

With its many ups and downs

Remember it's quite true to say

One smile is worth a dozen frowns

Among the world's expensive things

A smile is very cheap

And when you give a smile away,

You get one back to keep

Happiness comes at times to all

But sadness comes unbidden

And sometimes a few tears must fall

Among the laughter hidden

So when friends have sadness on their face

And troubles round them piled

The world will seem a better place
And all because you smiled...
