Here's Smiling At You
I'M SMILING A MILLION SMILES,
AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU.
YOU ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM,
YOUR INTENTIONS ARE GOOD AND TRUE.
YOUR LETTER IS THE SWEETEST THING,
LIKE BLOOMING FLOWERS IN A FIELD OF WONDER.
IT WARMED ME LIKE THE SUN'S RAYS,
AND GAVE ME A FEELING OF SPLENDOR.
I ONLY CHANGED TO BE A BETTER MAN,
BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE YOU BELIEVED I COULD.
I'M NO LONGER THINKING WITH A CRIMINAL MIND,
I STRIVE NOW FOR A LIFE THAT'S GOOD.
I HAVE VALUE IN MY LIFE NOW,
BECAUSE OF PEOPLE AS NICE AS YOU.
YOUR LETTER REALLY TOUCHED A LONELY HEART,
AND IT CAME FROM A HEART THAT'S NEW.
KEEP WRITING YOUR SWEETNESS,
AND YOUR KIND GIVING WAY.
IT REALLY HELPS TO KNOW YOU CARE,
WHILE LIFE SEEMS GLOOMY DAY AFTER DAY.
YOU ARE MY BRIGHT SUNSHINE,
THROUGH MAY CLOUDS OF GRAY.
WHEN YOU WROTE WITH SUCH CARE,
YOU REALLY MADE MY DAY.
GOD BLESS YOUR WORDS OF JOY,
WHAT PLEASURE IN WRITING YOU BRING.
I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU AGAIN,
LIKE WAITING FOR THE BEAUTY OF SPRING.
HERE'S SMILING AT YOU, BELOVED,
FROM MY HEART THAT'S SO SINCERE.
NO ONE OR ANYTHING CAN TAKE AWAY THIS SMILE,
YOUR LETTER IS SO SO DEAR.
