Smile
I didn't know any better
I was four years old, just learning how to pray
But right before the end of 1998, you came
Yes, we saw you coming
But nothing prepared us for what came next
You brought a different light into our lives
Oh, you were something else
Oh, and I won't let them steal your light
So powerful, and pure, and bright
You can fight off the darkness with just one smile
With just one smile
I didn't know any better
I was fifteen years old, I've forgotten how to pray
Glow in the dark stars, and classical guitars kept us sane
Yes, I am the quiet one
I've always kept it in, yeah, I've always been afraid
While I stayed in the shade, you were out dancing in the rain
You were always brave
Oh, and I won't let them steal your light
So powerful, and pure, and bright
I lose all my worries when I see your smile
When I see your smile
Oh, oh, oh
I still don't know any better
As I should by now, I'm still learning how to pray
But you were always there
You watch me fall, you watch me break, you always stay
Oh, and I won't let them steal your light
So powerful, and pure, and bright
I swear there's just something about your smile
Your smile
Don't let them keep you from smiling
Don't let them keep you from shining
Oh, don't let them keep you from burning bright
Keep it bright, keep the fire alive
Keep it bright, let it burn inside
Keep it bright
Keep it bright
Keep that smile
I was four years old, just learning how to pray
But right before the end of 1998, you came
Yes, we saw you coming
But nothing prepared us for what came next
You brought a different light into our lives
Oh, you were something else
Oh, and I won't let them steal your light
So powerful, and pure, and bright
You can fight off the darkness with just one smile
With just one smile
I didn't know any better
I was fifteen years old, I've forgotten how to pray
Glow in the dark stars, and classical guitars kept us sane
Yes, I am the quiet one
I've always kept it in, yeah, I've always been afraid
While I stayed in the shade, you were out dancing in the rain
You were always brave
Oh, and I won't let them steal your light
So powerful, and pure, and bright
I lose all my worries when I see your smile
When I see your smile
Oh, oh, oh
I still don't know any better
As I should by now, I'm still learning how to pray
But you were always there
You watch me fall, you watch me break, you always stay
Oh, and I won't let them steal your light
So powerful, and pure, and bright
I swear there's just something about your smile
Your smile
Don't let them keep you from smiling
Don't let them keep you from shining
Oh, don't let them keep you from burning bright
Keep it bright, keep the fire alive
Keep it bright, let it burn inside
Keep it bright
Keep it bright
Keep that smile
