Smile – Sami Yousuf (Lyrics)

TO SEE YOU SMILE
GIVE IT ALL AWAY

SIGHT OF YOUR SMILE
SO PURE AND WIDE
JUST LIKE THE MOON IN THE SKY
SHINING SO BRIGHT
YOU GIVE ME STRENGTH
YOU GIVE ME LIFE
GIVE EVERYTHING DO ANYTHING
WHATEVER IT’LL TAKE, TO SEE YOUR SMILE

I KNOW THAT I DON’T DESERVE YOU
AND MY LIFE HAS MEANING ‘CAUSE OF YOU
GIVE IT ALL AWAY TO SEE YOUR SMILE
I KNOW THAT I DON’T DESERVE YOU
EVERY SONG I SING HAS ALWAYS BEEN FOR YOU
GIVE IT ALL AWAY, TO SEE YOUR SMILE

SIGHT OF YOUR SMILE
SO PURE AND WIDE
AS YOU WELCOME ME BACK INTO YOUR ARMS
TELL ME I’VE WRONGED BUT IT’S ALRIGHT, IT’S ALRIGHT

THE ONLY THING I NEED IN LIFE IS YOU
SO LOST AND FRUSTRATED FAR FROM YOU
YOUR LOVE IS WHAT MAKES IT ALL WORTHWHILE
GIVE EVERYTHING AWAY, ANYTHING FOR YOUR SMILE

WHEN I’M AWAY
FAR FROM YOUR SIDE
I WATCH THE CLOUDS
COME AND GO IN THE COLD NIGHT SKY
THEY START TO PLAY
THEY COME TO LIFE
AND FROM THE DARK THE MOON APPEARS
JUST LIKE YOUR SMILE SHE SHINES HER LIGHT

TO SEE YOU SMILE
GIVE IT ALL AWAY
