If I Once Made You Smile, Remember

*IF I ONCE MADE YOU SMILE,... REMEMBER*


If I once dropped by to give you roses
And I no longer ring your doorbell lately 
Please buy a Cologne and gift to me 
My palm may be sore with thorns wounds
Remember we all deserve sweet fragrance


If we ever went out for lunch  with the bills on me
If you don't see me go for lunch again in the name of fasting 
Do good and drop a takeaway pack for me 
I may just be broke and not saying it 
Remember we don't deserve to starve to death 

If you ever put up in my crib and we had dinner together 
If I no longer invite you for supper  
Do well to knock on my door  
The journey I told you may be a lie 
I may now be on the Street homeless 
Remember we all deserve a place to lay our heads 


If I ever cracked jokes for you to laugh 
And I now wear long face  all day
Could you please take me out to the park 
I might have soaked my pillow all night
The tears are hidden under the glands for now
Remember we all deserve happiness 


If I once made you smile  
It is time to do the same
I can't be the hero all by myself
I need you just like you need me
The sun don't rise all day
Be the light to my path at my sunset 
If I once made you smile 
Remember this is the time to do the same
