Lyrics

A smiling face is an Earth-like star A frown can't bring out the beauty that you are Love within, and you'll begin smiling There are brighter days ahead Don't mess your face up with bitter tears 'Cause life is gonna be what it is It's okay, please don't delay from smiling There are brighter days ahead Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti bum Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti bum A smiling face you don't have to see 'Cause it's as joyful as a Christmas tree Love within and you'll begin smiling There are brighter days ahead Love's not competing; it's on your side You're in life's picture, so why must you cry? So for a friend, please begin to smile, please There are brighter days ahead, oh-oh Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti bum Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum ditti bum (Please smile for me) Bum, bum bum ditti Bum, bum bum
