A Happy Face

People are like a herd moving from place to place...
And sometimes out of the herd you'll spot a friendly face.

That person behind the face you want to get to know...
And before you know it you have a relationship and away you go.

It's really interesting to see how these things take place...
A herd of people and an arresting face.

It's not unusual because it happens every day...
A herd of people and two faces meeting along the way.

So if you're part of the herd moving from place to place...
Be smiling and loving and wear a happy face.

You never know who may be looking at you...
And remember, a smiling face is only found on a few.
