There were times during my mother’s life when things were not going well. Like most of us she had her fair share of dramas in her life but she always seemed happy and had a smile for everyone. I could never understand why Smile was her favourite song.
Now I understand
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying?
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just smile
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying?
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just smile
Thank you for posting these lyrics – I know the tune well, but never knew more than the first two lines of words. Here’s a smile for you! 🙂

I love Nat King Cole’s voice, it’s silky smoothness always makes me feel calm. This song is as great today as it ever was; thanks for the trip down memory lane Jenna.
