Smile Lyrics - Roots & Wings - Terri Clark

She packed my lunch up in a box for my first day of school 

I said I wish you could go with me today 

She said you're gonna be alright just like I promised you 

Just remember any time you feel afraid 

I want you to smile 

And know you're not alone 

Dry those little eyes 

I'll be here when you come home 

I'm always in your heart 

Even when we are apart 

It's only for a while 

So I want you to smile 

She packed my suitcase in the trunk when I turned 18 

And drove me all the way to Tennessee 

She said I know you're gonna make it, I've got faith in you 

And while you're out there chasin' down your dreams

I want you to smile 

And know you're not alone 

Dry those little eyes 

I'll be there when you come home 

I'm always in your heart 

Even when we are apart 

It's only for a while 

So I want you to smile 

She fought for three long years and didn't wanna leave 

No matter what they told her, she still believed 

So she used the tools God gave her 

But in the end they couldn't save her 

As I sat there by her bed watchin' her sleep 

She must have heard a tear roll down my cheek 

That's when she said to me

I want you to smile 

And know you're not alone 

Dry those little eyes

Even when we are apart 

It's only for a while 

So I want you to smile
