The Light of Your Smiling Face

THE LIGHT OF YOUR SMILING FACE

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face

I never knew what I was missing
I thought I had it all
Summer fading in the distance
I wasn’t ready for the fall

Leaves turn gold
Just before they die
Damn, I hate the cold
I wish that I could fly

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face (Don’t look away)

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face (Please stay)

Days are getting shorter
Like they’re trying to run
Off into the winter
Hiding from the sun

Leaves turn gold
Just before they die
I feel it in my soul
You were sent to keep me warm and dry

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face (Don’t look away)

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face (Please stay)

If you’re not with me, where will I go
If you’re not near me, where will I turn
If you don’t show me, how will I know
If you don’t warm me, how will I burn

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face (Don’t look away)

I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face (Please stay)
