One Extra Smile
Jack was a great swimmer there's no doubt
Stayed wet so long got dried out
Swam the channel at Stafford Lake
Asked how he did it "with one extra smile a day"
Money had a way of going down the drain
He fought the surf over English Bay
Some wondered what all the fuss was for
Here comes Jack with one more mile to the shore
Something over nothing's how it usually goes
Rain always comes wind always blows
Greatest backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly crawl
Parted the waves like the prophet Moses
What am I gonna do when I feel this way?
Just one extra smile a day
No one imagined how far he'd go
Across the Gulf of Mexico
If you don't know yourself you'll never know her
So dark tonight I feel like I'm getting closer
Something out of nothing there's a trick to it
Take what you got give it a twist
Greatest backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly crawl
Parted the waves like the prophet Moses
What do I do as memories start to slip?
I'm getting tired, I'm losing my drip
Watching the sunset over the bay
And one extra smile a day
Stayed wet so long got dried out
Swam the channel at Stafford Lake
Asked how he did it "with one extra smile a day"
Money had a way of going down the drain
He fought the surf over English Bay
Some wondered what all the fuss was for
Here comes Jack with one more mile to the shore
Something over nothing's how it usually goes
Rain always comes wind always blows
Greatest backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly crawl
Parted the waves like the prophet Moses
What am I gonna do when I feel this way?
Just one extra smile a day
No one imagined how far he'd go
Across the Gulf of Mexico
If you don't know yourself you'll never know her
So dark tonight I feel like I'm getting closer
Something out of nothing there's a trick to it
Take what you got give it a twist
Greatest backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly crawl
Parted the waves like the prophet Moses
What do I do as memories start to slip?
I'm getting tired, I'm losing my drip
Watching the sunset over the bay
And one extra smile a day
