When She Smiles

Now the birds are singing And the sun is shining And everything is going alright But the clouds keep hanging And it won’t stop raining Because the clouds won’t stop crying until she smiles Now my hands are shaking If I look calm I’m faking I’m as nervous as I’ll ever be tonight My chest is aching And my heart is quaking Because it’s harder to breathe when she smiles
