Ohh ohh ohh
1st Stanza
Had a dream last night you cared and asked me how I am
Well I am
Sometimes the road to victory takes leads to no good end
And we bend
And it's pure as the sun, as sure as the sky
Youll miss out on me singing it's time to fly
Change has begun
So cease your regrets
I make good mistakes and I'm not over yet
2nd Stanza
I won't give up on me like you did
I choose to let myself see the good in
Not breathing for you, but you wish you could be smiling

Smiling
(same as 1st stanza)
And I wake up, but don't look in the mirror
Walk downtown, as if it one day it might come clearer
Think I'll see you, but you couldn't be farther
Picture a little girl that could have been my daughter
(same as 2nd stanza)
Hope you live up to be what you will
I choose to keep myself free and the truth is
I always think of you, but you will think of me
Smiling
(same as bridge)
Smiling
Now I stand quiet and still smiling
You know I swallow that pill smiling
I guess I can't get my fill of smiling
Go it alone, I will, smiling
(Same as bridge, still)
Breathing is really (real and?) cool, yeah, I love my life
Every reason in the world to be smiling
Breathing is really (real and?) cool, yeah, I love my life
Every reason in the world to be smiling
Breathing is really (real and?) cool, yeah, I love my life
Every reason in the world to be smiling
Ohh ohh ohh
Yeah yeah yeah
