Please let me see you smile again
As you have done before.
I’d love to see the beauty of
Your precious smile once more.
Just one more time before I leave
I’d like to see you smile.
The memory of it will have
To last me for a while.
I know that things will never be
The way that they have been,
For once I leave you here tonight,
We’ll never meet again.
