Always Smiling: Difference between revisions
(So great to finally get to this one. Seems like it's almost universally agreed to be the standout track, and I agree. I hope the lyrics section isn't too out of line for something with no confirmed lyrics like this.) |

Lyrics
Please note that these lyrics are conjectural, as no officially confirmed lyrics exist.
With your wings tonight
You can come from any walk of life
Your beat will come on the inside
But when you get right into the heart
You know there's no other way to flySmile will bring the sunshine days
Comfort me tonight, with your wings tonight
Smile will bring the sunshine days
You come anyway on the way you rideYou can come from any walk of life
Your beat will come on the inside
A chance you have, flying that way
As I fly across a distant skySmile will bring the sunshine days
Comfort me tonight, with your wings tonight
Smile will bring the sunshine days
You come anyway on the way you ride
Comfort me tonight, with your wings tonight
You come anyway on the way you ride
