Heart That Smile

Setting on the sofa watching A little TV Things not in order The way they should be Combing my hair with one hand And the remote in the other A bake potato sat on the end table With a little sour cream and butter With everything that’s going on in life Maybe I should be in pain But tonight my heart smiles So in life there is no rain Looking at a photo taking Many years ago Feeling the exact same as I did All those years ago I have a heart that smile no matter what I act lady like at times and On occasions I act like a nut Even when the sun stops shinning And trouble stacks in piles I will continue to reach new heights Because of the heart that smiles Even though the storm may rise And water fills my eyes It doesn’t stop the rhythm of this Old heart that smile Sometimes when you are going through There’s nothing good you can hear Place your hand on your chest And you will feel your heart there With every beat that you feel it’s Giving you a message Saying even though you are going through A smile the heart expresses A tender gentle breeze that blows In the air A warm fuzzy feeling that explodes everywhere Boldly it tells us what and who to trust Some are strong unbreakable and tough Even in danger, afraid but yet smiles The heart is remarkable traveling Between space, time, and miles This is what I think while setting here tonight And a deep part of me know that it’s right The heart is what judges us in life It’s what God sees through his sight It can let go of things you never thought You had It can make you feel good or condemn You to feeling bad Nevertheless; I can conquer the saddest troubles And make it all worthwhile Simple because God has given me a heart That smile
