For Tess
do not envy the
billionaires for their
problems are in
billions too
be glad ours
are just in
cents
what makes us happy
simply depends
on what makes
us smile
there is no need to
complicate
what simple
happiness is all
about
how about a
talk?
tonight?

Bunker Hill
i've been a fool for way too long and i've been in hiding for a silent song
in the safe of bunker hill the jews are trying to kill me
it's the cost of the safety fines that's bringing me out tonight
could we sit, sit, on a bench, or walk,
for some time we could talk but we'll probably be pretty far apart
he, he makes her happy
he makes her cry
i can see he needs her every night
he, he makes her happy
september wasn't happy
and neither were you
he, he makes her happy
he makes her cry
i can see he needs her every night
he, could have made me happy
september wasn't happy
and neither were you
and neither was i
i'll be glad if we make it through

Tonight I Draw Your Smile
tonight i draw your smile,
a smile that makes me feel satisfied,
feeling it touch my weary heart,
as if it has only began to played its part,
a touch of a child to my heart,
which makes me want to fall apart,
for a baby's touch is ever so mild,
a smile that makes my heartbeat intensified,
for it can make my heart feel warm,
If only I could ask God to just add one more heartbeat,
I would, for I want to see you smile,
Even just a second longer than i'm suposed to be,
a smile that can take me to paradise,
feeling nothing but happiness inside,
i wish i can see it every now and then,
i wish i can see it when i start and end my dream.
a smile that stops my heart from crying,
for it gives me more reason to continue living,
and makes me feel stupid of all my dying wishes,
for God's miracle is always been that simple,
with one smile that no one can ever defy.

It Makes Me Happy, To Be With You
It makes me happy, to be with you.
To watch you smile and hear you speak
and see your eyes turn softly warm,
makes me happy to be with you.
It makes me happy, to be with you.
To watch you spreading jam and butter
on your home made scones,
makes me happy to be with you.
It makes me happy, to be with you.
To be able to put my arms around you
and draw you gently close to me,
makes me happy to be with you.
And it makes me happy, to be with you
when holding your cheek close to mine,
breathing the warmth of you
and feeling the warmth of you
soaking quietly through me,
makes my breath tremble in my chest.
You make me happy to be with you.

Fear Nothing But One
Fear Love for it will kill you both in such thrill
Makes you suffer when you're happy
Makes you perish when you're ill
Fear it for it makes you decide in such a deadly way
Makes you choose if you are for your happiness
Makes you decide to work or play
Fear Dark for it will blind you and always let you fall
Makes you fall without such judgment
Makes you cry in no such call
Fear it for it makes you clueless and not updated and aware
Makes you tremble without knowing
Makes you hardly even care
Fear Needles for it will bleed you and strike you in the eye
Makes you suffer bleeding hard
Makes you simply knowing you're alive
Fear it for it will simply have a permanent scar on your face
Makes you feel be wasted
Makes you wanted it to erase
Fear everything else but nothing beats them all but him
God sets the beginning of everything
God sets the end of everything
Fear him for he can do anything even impossible in the eye
God will make you face your fear
God will make you sigh

My Son has taught me how much God loves me
When I look in Eljay’s eyes with love, it makes me remember how much love God has for me
The way my son gives me joy with his smile makes me know how much I cause a smile in the Father’s face
Or when I would play with my son, I want to make sure we bond
I know right there and then, God desires to bond with me as well
Or when I feed my son whenever he cries or when it is time makes me feel how much God anticipate my needs
Or how much my baby depends on me and my husband makes me feel how much God is dependable in every area of my life
Or when I feel how perfect my son is makes me remember how much God sees me as his perfect daughter simply because I am his own

Smiling
The beach makes me smile
I love the color of the water
And the feel of the salty air
On my skin
Hearing my favorite song on the radio makes me smile
I'll roll down the windows
And sing along
Just a little bit off key
Seeing other people smile, makes me smile
Laughing children,
Happy cashiers at the grocery store
As they ring up my loaf of bread
It's the simplest things that make me smile
But do you know what makes me smile most of all?
Being near you makes me smile
I would like to smile the rest of my life

Every Little Thing
If your heart could talk I wonder what it would tell me
If your mind could walk would it bring me a love never ending
Yes, Ive got to know
Ive got to know
No secrets anymore
Youve got to tell me
All your days have gone a goin to a go-go
Now the time has come, is it gonna be a no no, no no
Ive got to know
Ive got to know
No secrets anymore
Youve got to tell me
Tell me every little thing that makes you happy, oh oh oh
Every little thing that makes you glad
All of the secrets that you hide I got to know
Whoa, every little thing
Youve gotta stop all your reservations
Am I for the chop or is it celebrations?
Yes, Ive got to know
Ive got to know
No secrets anymore
Youve got to tell me
Tell me every little thing that makes you happy, oh oh oh
Every little thing that makes you glad
All of the secrets that you hide I got to know
Whoa, every little thing
Tell me every little thing (tell me)
Every little thing (tell me)
Tell me every little thing that makes you happy, oh oh oh
Every little thing that makes you glad
All of the secrets that you hide I got to know
Whoa, every little thing
Every little thing

Smile Always!
Smile man, smile! Always smile!
Smile all life and smile in style;
Smiling makes one worriless;
And makes you happy and less tense.
Let your smile be spontaneous;
Smiling keeps body relaxed,
And makes your mind fit and composed;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Smile from dawn to until dusk;
That’s one way to beat life’s stress;
Smile to all who come across;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Smile and get forever praise;
It will help you pass your days;
You will never feel malaise;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Four muscles help you to smile;
Sixty-four help you to frown;
Smile man smile! Smile all days!
Smile man, smile! Smile always!

Your Smile...
Your smile…
Your smile…
No one can ever make me smile unless its your smile…
I cant seem to control my smile when ever I see your smile…
The thoughts of your smile makes me smile…
A smile soo beautiful… soo nice…
Just a simple smile of yours makes my day…
Its funny how such a smile can mean soo much…
When I’m down all it takes is your smile to make me whole…
Your smile makes my emotion screams in every way…
Your smile…
Your smile…
Your smile is the sunset in my world…
When your not smiling the world turns dark…
But when you smile my world brightens up…

Treasure Those Moments
what makes one happy
well it depends on the person
some people find happiness in the simple things
others dont take much notice
some people find happiness from people
in many different ways
some people find happiness from the important things
but to sum it up, we all find happiness sometime
even if its just a second,
it was still there right?
you should treasure those moments for as long as possible
happiness is a gift for us
laugh as much as possible
it involves smileing
which implies amusement
which implies pleasure
which implies happiness
maybe not always
nothing is ever always
not even your spirit
which continues on for a while
but my point is
to not waste your life
find happiness
and dont let things bring you down
Air-Hostess Song
She had perfect eyes
That's all she had
And in the these perfect skies
Makes you glad
She has alibis
And they're not bad
And in these perfect skies
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
She had perfect eyes
That's all she had
And in the these perfect skies
Makes you glad
We're all here on faith
The air tastes bad
Far from perfect skies Is all you had
Is all you had
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
Makes you sad
I don't want no grace
Just a smile
Just a smile
Put me in my place
With a smile
Just a smile
I don't want no grace
Just a smile
Just a smile
I don't want no grace
Just a smile
Make you glad
Make you glad
Make you glad
Make you..

Its Your Move
Artist(Band):98 Mute
(Print the Lyrics)
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever makes you tick
Whatever makes the days that you pass through
Seem worth it
Whatever makes you feel like you're in place
Whatever makes your burdens lose their weight
Whatever makes you feel like you belong
Whatever makes you strong
It's up to you
Do whatever you want to do
Just be sure you follow through
Whatever makes you feel alright
Whatever gets you through the night
Whatever puts its arms around you
Whatever makes you smile
Whatever makes your daily battles seem worthwhile
Whatever makes you feel like your time is well spent
Whatever causes you to be content
Whatever helps you to erase your doubts
Whatever makes you proud
You are your best critic your best defense
It's you and no one else
So take charge of your choices and your life
Take charge of yourself

Being with you
I wish I could be in your arms forever
You make me so happy when were together
You always say I’m beautiful
If I am feeling low you make me feel wonderful
I like the way you make me feel
I know this feeling is real
You don't hurt me with insults the way they did
You don't talk to me like I’m some dumb little kid
I like you so much it makes my head spin
With every smile you pull me in
You're the best I've ever had
Having you in my life makes me glad
I wouldn't leave you to save the world
I am glad to have you call me your girl
You are my world you are my everything
You make my knees weak you make my heart sing
I am overwhelmed with a blissful joy
I know that you are and will stay my boy

Behind Closed Doors
My baby makes me proud
Lord, don't she make me proud
she never makes a scene
By hangin' all over me in a crowd
'Cause people like to talk
Lord, don't they love to talk
But when they turn out the lights
I know she'll be leavin' with me
And when we get behind closed doors
Then she let's her hair hang down
And she makes me glad that I'm a man
Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
My baby makes me smile
Lord, don't she make me smile
she's never far away
Or too tired to say I want you
She's always a lady
Just like a lady should be
But when they turn out the lights
She's still my baby to me
'Cause when we get behind closed doors
Then she let's her hair hang down
And she makes me glad I'm a man
Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
Behind closed doors

My baby makes me proud, Lord, don't she make me proud
She never makes a scene by hanging all over me in a crowd
Cause people like to talk, Lord, don't they love to talk
But when they turn out the lights, I know she'll be leaving with me
And when we get behind closed hairs, and she lets her hair hang down
And she makes me glad that I'm a man
And no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
My baby makes me smile, Lord, don't she make me smile
She's never far away or too tired to say I want you
She's always a lady, just like a lady should be
But when they turn out the lights, she's still a baby to me
And when we get behind closed doors, and she lets her hair hang down
And she makes me glad that I'm a man
And no one knows what goes on behind closed doors

Can't Smile Without You
You know i can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
I can't laugh, and i can't walk
I'm findin' it hard even to talk
And i feel sad when you're sad
I feel glad when you're glad
And you must know what i'm goin' thru
I just can't smile, without you
You came along just like a song
You brightened my day
Who'd believe you were part of a dream
That only seemed light years away
And you know i can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
And you must know what i'm goin' thru
I just can't smile, without you
Some people say the happiness wave
Is somethin' that's hard to find
Into the new leavin' the old behind me
And i feel sad when you're sad
I feel glad when you're glad
And you must know what i'm goin' thru
I just can't smile, without you
And i feel sad when you're sad
I feel glad when you're glad
And you must know what i'm goin' thru
I just can't smile, without you
You must know what i'm goin' thru
I just can't smile, without you

It's Simple
It's simple really
Somehow
Some way
You manage
To make my heart smile
Even if you aren't around
Even when you're away
It's strange really
Because sometimes all I have to do
Is think of the last time
The last conversation
The last time I saw
You
And
It makes my day brighter
Makes me forget my troubles
Makes me remember
Reminds me of you
It makes my heart smile
And, eventually
Before I know it
I'm smiling too

Lord, dont they like to talk
But when they turn out the lights
I know hell be leavin with me
And when we get behind closed doors
Then I let my hair hang down

Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
My baby makes me smile
Lord, dont he make me smile
Hes never far away
Or too tired to say I want you
And Im always a lady
Just like a lady should be
But when they turn out the lights
Hes still my baby to me
And when we get behind closed doors
Then I let my hair hang down
Oh, he makes me glad Im a woman
Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
Oh, behind closed doors
I let my hair hang down
Im glad that Im a woman
No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
Behind closed doors
I let my hair hang down
He makes me glad Im a woman
No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
And when we get behind closed doors

Small Talk
Its not the chapters he reads when youre feeling low down
Its not the touch of his skin when you kiss him goodnight
Its not the money he spends when you want to buy a daydream
And not that miracle smile that makes the sky bright
Its not the way his hands behave
When youve turned out the light
Its the small, small small talk that makes it all happen
Small, small small talk that makes you want to fly, yes it does
Its not the way he believes in you like a religion
Its not the thrill that you get when hes holding you tight
Its not the way his eyes persuade
You to stay the night
Its the small, small small talk that makes it all happen (just like that)
Small, small small talk that makes you feel like flying, yes it does
Information, heart and soul, a whisper, a word
Confessions that have to be heard
Small small talk
Come on now, come on now
Come on - you make it rock so heavenly
Come on now, come on now
Come on - you seem to talk so heavenly
Big words...
Small talk...
Its not the way his eyes persuade
You to stay the night
Its the small, small small talk that makes it all happen
Small, small small talk that makes you feel like flying, yes it does

A Different Moment
Happiness is a moment
Different for all
Sometimes it show things big
And sometimes things small
For happiness is that
What makes you glad
And brings pleasure
By changing all bad
And happiness is when
You don't feel the pain
And everywhere is scattered
Smiles of fain
That makes you feel
Happy in life
And show you more
Joys that survive.
