about

Graeme Humphreys here.
This is a simple pop song. A deference owed to The Feelies perhaps.

lyrics

Oh see the road in front of you!
Observe the breaking day!
I’m glad with you as company.
I could keep on all day!
You smiled, that changed everything.

Come now in the world of possibly.
You feel your decisions sway.
Hold tight to the integrity one small little action gave.
You smiled, that changed everything.

Now, with certainty find you way, and all who surround you, come inside.
One things for certain, whenever disturbed or whenever you’re frightened, this is yours to have and ever hold.

I feel so alive!
Must be the pouring rain.
Found life right here in front of me,
Now nothing can be the same.
You smiled, that changed everything.

Like no-one else and just like you.
Find the strength to see you through.
With the gift of laugh and levity, with sang froid the daring play.
You smiled, that changed everything.
