Smile My Friend
R. Guarino

We were just ten years old
We didn't know better
Swore that we would never get old
And we'd never say never

But time has a way of takin' your dreams
And it puts them aside
We're lookin' for bigger and better things
'Cause we're empty inside

CHORUS:
When are you gonna smile my friend
When are you gonna laugh
You keep on pushin' and drivin' yourself
And it's not gonna last

Now we can go on like this for a while
And we'll get by (maybe we'll get by)
But there's got to be more to this life than dying
And standing in line

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
You can't see the finer things like the sun that lights the day
Lookin' back to good times gone away
You say your love is gone, but I don't think you've waited long enough
Don't let a good thing slip away

SOLO

CHORUS

BRIDGE

...and you know it won't last
