Fire Maple Song
Turn away from the pain you dont want
Turning down to avoid them when they call
Strange words I heard a long long time ago
I wish I could go back to a summer time I knew more than twenty years ago=
Cant lay beneath the sheets we lie underneath the maple tree
Now I cant smile
Lying in the grass with the wind around us as we smile and talk
Listen to your grandma sing those country songs
Shed tell us how the maple turns to fire every four years
Wed sit in the grass all summer just to watch the autumn come around
I cant smile now
I live alone and youre so far away
I call you once a year just around the holiday
I still see you in the night lying above me in the grass
I cant smile
Turn away from the pain you dont want
Turning down to avoid them when they call
I cant believe this letter that says you died
I think Im gonna go back to the old house in north carolina and lay in the backyard
Get drunk and let the leaves just bury me
Bury me
I cant smile

O, How I Smile!
O, how I smile!
I smile at the morning sun,
I smile when the day is done;
I smile at a cup of tea,
I smile at the old oak tree;
I smile at the summer flower,
I smile at each sudden shower;
I smile at the horned moon,
I smile for poor Lorna Doone;
I smile on early Monday mornings,
I even smile when I'm yawning!
I smile in slow traffic jams,
I smile when I'm eating spam;
I smile when I miss my date,
I smile when the weekend's late;
I smile at the minimum wage,
I smile at the blank white page.
I smile when my hawks aren't fed,
I smile in my empty bed;
I smile at all my enemies,
(Which makes them rather ill at ease) !
I smile at horrid screaming babies,
I'll smile if my dogs get rabies;
I smile if the nights get cold,
I'll smile if I get too old;
I smile if I'm feeling vague,
I'll smile with bubonic plague;
(When I think of someone dear,
I'll smile with a little tear) .
I'll smile when the Furies call,
I'll smile when the cities fall;
I'll smile when all the cards are dealt,
I'll smile when the ice-caps melt;
I'll smile when all the bees have died,
I'll smile when the Earth has fried;
I'll still be smiling, there's no doubt,
Even when the Sun goes out.
But as I smile I'd like to say,
I smile out to sea each day,
Where once the summer wind had ranged,
And then so very quickly changed,
To leave me stranded in this place,
While fixing fast my smiling face.

How Would You Like To Be?
(words & music by ben raleigh - mark barkan)
How would you like to be?
A little circus clown
And you could wear a smile
Instead of a frown
How would you like to be?
A little kangaroo
A-hoppin up and down
And I could hop with you
Come on and smile a little, smile a little
Hop a little, hop a little,
Smile a little, hop a little bit with me
Come on and smile a little, smile a little
Hop a little, hop a little,
Smile a little, hop a little bit with me
Oh ho, ha ha, a-tra la la la la la la
A ha, tra la la la la la la
How would you like to be?
A little buzzing bee
And instead of a tree
You could buzz around me
How would you like to be?
A little mocking bird
And you can sing me songs
Like I never heard
Come on and buzz a little, buzz a little
Sing a little, sing a little
Buzz a little, sing a little bit with me
Buzz, buzz, buzz a little
Do re mi a little
Buzz a little, sing a little bit with me
Oh-ho ah-ha, tra la la la la la la
Oh-ho, a-ha ,a-tra la la la la la la
How would you like to be?
A little baby bear
And you can hug me tight
Any time you care
How would you like to be?
A little dancing doll
And you could dance with me
Everytime I call
Oh-ho, tra la la la la la la
Oh-ho...ah-ah...tra la la la..la.la..la

Smile … Dear Smile
Walk up to smile.
Fondle well to smile; Bring hearts from a mile.
Set heart to smile; Get muscle to smile.
Smile whispers one nest; A million senses to crest.
Smile to shine; bring out yawning spirits from whine.
Troubles' far gone with smile; Pains fade away with smile.
Give joy to heart with smile; Live for forever with smile.
Envy not to smile; Frown not to smile; for you have fond smile.
Win with smile; nothing lost to smile; Share contagious smile.
Winter, spring, summer or fall; be smile season to call.
All I want S.M.I.L.E.;

Smile for you
I always smile when i think of you
The one for me, who is always true
The one i turn to
Whatever happened you help me through
I smile for you
I stand perfect in your stength alone
Five years so much weve grown
Take me call me your own
Together we could never be alone
I smile for you
When im sinking in the sand
Only you can understand
You never judge never brand
With you on my feet i always land
I smile for you
My love for you is blind
With it my heart is lined
All around it twined
Eternally there to bind
I smile for you
I'll give you all i have the good the bad
You are the best thing ive ever had
We didnt burn out like a childish fad
For this i am more than glad
I smile for you
I will break into your thoughs
With whats written on my heart
Even though we my be worlds apart
Its worth it all from the start
I smile for you
We will turn out right
Even if its dark we are in the light
Forever together walking where it is bright
Fingers entwined ever so tight
I smile for you
I just want to love you
The again thats nothing new
A long time ago those feelings grew
I know you feel it too
I smile for you

A Smile Is..
A smile is light and love
A smile is send from above
A smile is always in motion
Your face is the earth, your smile is the ocean
A smile is not just a smile that gets your attention
A true smile is shining with good intention
A smile comes from within
A smile compensates for a man´s sin
A smile makes it all barible
The pain fades away and everything becomes incredible
We are eternal souls of Grace
When we smile we see our true face
You might fall and get hurt one day
But when smiling all pain will fade away
When you feel hope is gone and you have nothing to turn to
One must smile and realize that the Light will always be in you
SMILE and it BLOOMS FOREVER! ! !
SMILE! ! ! a NEW LIFE will blossom right before your EYES
Don’t worry! ! ! Smile! ! !
A Smile is an act of Modesty
A Smile sheds on light your Honesty
A Smile is a sweet Escape from Anxiety
A Smile is a precious gift
A Smile gives you a lift
To your sad mood
The Magic Smile makes a Shift
Smile, conquer your inner pain
Don’t think twice, smile
Bring back your inner bliss again
Don’t rile! ! ! Don’t rile
A Sincere Smile makes one’s intention plain
Smile when you’re worry
Smile when you’re in a hurry
Smile when you say Sorry
Smile, Smile for the Smile itself
A Smile is a way to relax yourself
The Reason of the Smile is a Smile
When you smile,
You’ll realize that the Life Worthwhile
Paint a Smile on your face,
No matter the time or the place
Smile and you’ll be always the Ace
Smile, be your delight chief
Smile, erase your grief
Send your Hopeful Smile
The despair is the Smile Thief
Smile and walk on the Hope’s Way
Smile, your Smile Rays shine your Day
Smile, your Tears Of Sadness turns into Tears Of Joy
Smile, you’ll feel the innocence of a little Girl or Boy
Smile! ! ! Don’ Worry! ! !

Smile! :) ?
Smile...whenever you are free
Just have a walk somewhere near sea..
A smile for u to kip calm and in ease
This smile, that makes u feel like a cool breeze..
A smile when there`s no place to accommodate
Give A smile even when there`s no time to celebrate..
Smile when your wardrobe is has nothing new
Wear something differently from that existing hue..
A smile..to impress
U should have for you to dress..
Smile when your friends turn lazy
That's the time when u start acting crazy..
The smile when u rise up in d crowd
Is the one which makes u feel proud..
A smile when u in a hurry
A smile even when you are in a great flurry..
Smile when u are stuck in traffic
Turn on the deck & feel the magic..
Smile when u have no new songs in d playlist
Don`t forget..still the radio exist..
Smile when you are full of sweat
Weather will change and turn wet..
Smile while u mask yourself
Smile even when you don`t have anyone to help
Just remember..your time will come, time will change..
Smile when u think your destiny is too long
Just start a song and walk along..
Smile after finishing the quest
That smile after giving your best..
And..those tough look with a smile u give
Your rival can be convinced and let you forgive..
Smile to weaken your enemy
This will end them with their envy..
Smile..when everything goes wrong
Fight and survive to prove yourself strong! ..
Smile when your lover leaves u and goes
The whip they will experience just like a blow..
Smile when someone leaves u with some memory
Let them go and show their bravery..
Smile when there is no one to stands with u
Just watch the moon, above in the sky blue..
Smile when u are been hospitalized
The reason that will make u feel energized..
Donate a smile while u take some rest
After clearing your deals with a pest..
Smile when u have nothing new to tweet
Heheh..you can't even repeat..
Smile..because everything else, will happen on its own :))

Summer Girls
When the sun rise
Dont let the time flies,
dont try to ignore, dont be bore
It's time to get up our sleepy heart
make this season yours,
in your life this should be part.
Young girl with a demure smile
Go out and let your smile shine.
With your sleepy and yet twinkled eyes,
be bright like the sun, see how it's fine.
Young girl with the brightest smile,
bright like the summer sun
You're the child of a summer fun,
go ahead curly-heared girl,
be a friend to those who shy,
it's time to be free under the summer sky.
You are the summer girls,
you found out from the start.
The summer lovers
who fell in love without fear.
Who chase the wind and fly
soar above the clouds,
laugh loud
scream and shout.
Be the summer voice
you are the summer girls,
you can make a choice.
Sing as the birds flies,
they heard the rythm
you have the hymm,
see how the they dance
beneathe that blue sky.
On your cheeks the wind will kiss
listen to your heartbeat
taste the sweat.
Dont worry about the bothering sound
when those boys and girls are around
be the thirteenth
with those fourteenth...
explore, have fun.
The summer will end soon,
and so the summer friends.
One by one they will gone,
and you will see what's remain.
Keep the memories
remember like you were always there-
The girl with a brigthest smile,
the girl with a demure smile,
you are the summer girls
that will always be remembered.

Turning Time Around
She says, what do you call love
Well I call it harry
Oh, please Im being serious
What do you call love
Well I dont call it family and I dont call it lust
And as we all know marriage isnt a must
And I suppose in the end, its a matter of trust
If I had to Id call love time
She says, what do you call love
Cant you be more specific
What do you call love
Is it more than the hearts hieroglyphic
Well for me time has no meaning, no future, no past
And when youre in love, you dont have to ask
Theres never enough time to hold love in your grasp
Turning time around
Turning time around
That is what love is
Turning time around
Yes, that is what love is
My time is your time when youre in love
And time is what you never have enough of
You cant see or hold it, its exactly like love
Turning time around
Turning time around
Turning time around
Turning time around
Turning time around
Well I gotta have it
I gotta-gotta-gotta have it
Turning, turning time around
Gotta have it, turning time around
Turning, turning time around
Turning time around

Ivan, What Happened To Your Smile?
What happened to your smile?
Ivan, [that`s how I would like to call you]
Tell, where is your smile that bloomed on your face?
Ivan, I am afraid your smile has faded for ever.
In the midst of deafening roars and maddening songs,
Ivan, your smile had a musical charm over a season.
Your smile could be seen from places miles away,
Ivan, it had an aroma that winds would proudly carry.
I used to think about others who had solid faces,
Ivan, your face was an exception to all theirs.
The frost and the flame of my winter and summer
Ivan, you see, played hide and seek often; but your smile did not.
Retrieve your smile please for I need to see it
Ivan, your smile speaks volumes about what you are indeed.
In the midst of these homosapians I search for my face
Though I had lost my smile long before you were born Ivan.

September Grass
Well, the suns not so hot in the sky today
And you know I can see summertime slipping on away
A few more geese are gone, a few more leaves turning red
But the grass is as soft as a feather in a featherbed
So Ill be king and youll be queen
Our kingdoms gonna be this little patch of green
Wont you lie down here right now
In this september grass
Wont you lie down with me now
September grass
Oh the memory is like the sweetest pain
Yeah, I kissed the girl at a football game
I can still smell the sweat and the grass stains
We walked home together. I was never the same.
But that was a long time ago
And where is she now? I dont know
Wont you lie down here right now
In this september grass
Wont you lie down with me now
September grass
Oh, september grass is the sweetest kind
It goes down easy like apple wine
Hope you dont mind if I pour you some
Made that much sweeter by the winter to come
Do you see those ants dancing on a blade of grass?
Do you know what I know? thats you and me, baby
Were so small and the worlds so vast
We found each other down in the grass
Wont you lie down with me right here
September grass
Wont you lie down with me now
In this september grass
Lie down
Lie down
Lie down
Lie down
(repeat)
Wont you lie down here right now
In this september grass
Wont you lie down here now
In this september grass

As Long As You Smile
I would dig my own grave,
And lay to rest alive,
As long as you smile,
Taking a long thin blade,
Stabbing it through my chest,
As long as you smile,
Shedding out tears,
Like the clouds pour rain,
As long as you smile,
Because as long as you smile,
The sun will shine,
As long as you smile,
The stars will light up the night,
And as long as you smile,
I will be here,
But when that apocalyptic day comes,
And your smile fades away,
There will be nothing left for me,
As your smile means the world to me,
So smile,
If not for you,
For me
As long as you smile,
I will smile,
And join you,
In a place where there is only you and I,
Together like spring and flowers,
Never without one another,
Alone in the light rain showers,
We shall stand,
And if we are ever torn apart,
Searching for each other,
Till found,
Reunited,
So smile,
Just smile,
And as long as you smile,
All will be fine

Nowhere but INDONESIA
Nowhere but Indonesia
Thousands island lies on equator
Sun shines brightly along the year
Welcoming smiles are free of charge
Nowhere but Indonesia
Thousands lie covered those islands
Son shy to says that He is right
Full of charge are those who lies
Nowhere but Indonesia
Hope and pain live in peace
For hope is shadow of the pain
And pain is a charge of the hope
Nowhere but Indonesia
Plant and animals live in harmony
For it was said beyond the ages
and should be paid without objection
Nowhere but Indonesia
Children built their little dream
Tear it off when they grew up
Comes denial when getting old
Nowhere but Indonesia
We smile when we smile
We smile when we not smile
We not smile when you smile
Nowhere but Indonesia
Am on my knee lift up a prayer
God bless my country is what I plea
Coz my country long time no smile
Nowhere but Indonesia
Thousands island lie on equator
Hope and pain live in peace
We smile when we not smile

If its all over why smile

If we cant make it work why smile

If theres no way out why smile

The Spanish Archer
Well there must have been a reason for the
Smile that you had upon your face last night
Are you the cat that got the cream did you
Lick your lips did you close your eyes
Can you imagine how it feels its so hard to reveal
Oh I cant get through and Im falling
Im getting out Im losing ground
The spanish archers gonna bring you down
Is there someone somewhere waiting in the wings to take my place
Lets not drag it out like a cagney death scene
In this season of change its not hard to explain
Like the leaves on the trees Im falling
And as you turn dont look away
The spanish archers gonna make you pay
Do you remember when the sky was blue we used to talk for miles
And now we drive along in this thundering silence
Its such an obvious lie with that easy smile of yours
Im letting go and Im falling
Im getting out losing ground
The spanish archers gonna bring you down
Well is there something I can say as
We stumble to the edge have we gone too far
Why dont we call it a day before we call it a nightmare darlin
If we made a mistake then all that it takes to be free
Is the wave of a hand and youre falling
And as you turn dont look away
The spanish archers gonna make you pay

Selfish
Well, its too late for givin in
Ive been waitin for too long
Theres no way that I could lose
Givin me the love youve been holding back
Today Im not gonna wait
Not anymore, the time is now
Id give up everything
Just to have you for myself
Cuz when I think about it
Your love, your kiss
I never felt anything like this
Youre sent from above
Im so in love
When I think about it
Your touch, your smile
I never felt anything like this
And I know its real
Its just the way that I feel
Im just a little bit
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
Should I stop trippin and let it flow?
It happened a long time ago
Damn, boy you hurt me so
When you cheated on me with that other lady
Well, I felt embarassed and ashamed
And to top it, you called out her name
Keep thinking Im the one to blame
Still, I took you back
When I think about it
Your love, your kiss
I never felt anything like this
Youre sent from above
Im so in love
When I think about it
Your touch, your smile
I never felt anything like this
And I know its real
Its just the way that I feel
Im just a little bit
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
There are reasons why I care
The way you love me seems so unreal
There are times when I feel scared
Cuz you had a girl when we first met
I close my eyes and pray
That you would be more truthful baby
Be the love of my lifetime
Say that youll be mine
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont want to share you with anybody else
I dont want no one around you
Calling you, paging you
You can call me selfish
Im selfish
I dont wanna share you with anybody else
Dont want them hugging you
Touching you, feeling you, kissing you
You could call me selfish
