There comes a time, in ever persons life,
When there is more to it than just doing what is right,
There comes a time, when we can't sleep at night,
Just because we do not want to close our eyes,
Days go on, hour after hour, restless as can be we have no sense of power,
The years pass by, month after month, useless is what we feel that it's all enough,

Resting when working, and stressing when at rest,
Nothing seems to sooth the pain or make us forget our regrets,
But when we stop and think about it for a while,
We start to realize, nothing is more important than a smile,
Seems to be these days there is nothing we can get,
So we hide ourselves with dark temptation and don't fret,
But when we stop and think about it for a while,
We start to realize, nothing is more important than a smile,

Those last days, they seem to fall apart,
Because we all change to make things right,
A bitter man would bite his tongue and see the light,
Realizing all those burdens are actually lies,
Moments pass, minute after minute, we just want to love and know that we've been in it,
Hours leave us, second after second, we try to make it look like no god we have reckoned,

Trying while dying, and crying while at death,
Everything seems too late for us to change our ways,
But when we stop and think about it for a while,
We start to realize, nothing is more important than a smile,
So try to cover our sadness in presents and sweets,
Only to stand up to see ourselves loosing our seats,
But when we stop and think about it for a while,
We start to realize, nothing is more important than a smile.
