Why I'm Smiling

Lots of people crying...
Even more are dying...
Lots of people screaming...
We all hope that we're dreaming.

They ask me while I smile
When I no such things
They say I'm such a child
Because I still laugh and sing.

But the joy I bring
They can't see
How my happiness is contagious
By being just me

Would you cry harder,
To see someone laugh?
The reason I smile
Is on your behalf.

If I cry for you
You cry harder too
If I laugh with you
You'll have laughter too.

Why I'm smiling
Is simple and true
I'm smiling so
You can smile too.
