A Smile Up the Road
If I thought I had a chance
to even think about romance,
on you, my sweet, well, it never showed
But if you look my way
on some sad or sunny day
you know, I’m just a smile up the road
If I could just decide
to swallow up my pride
and call on you, would my heart explode
I guess I’ll wait and see
if you ever think of me
and know, I’m just a smile up the road
If I could but recall
a single word at all
to give me hope, to ease my weary load
When just your slightest grin
affects the mood I’m in
I think, you’re just a smile up the road
