[edit] Lyrics
Sometimes I wonder
how I’d ever make it through
Through this world without having you
I just wouldn’t have a clue
Caus sometime it seems
like this world’s closing in on me
And there’s no way of breaking free
And then I see you reach for me
Sometimes I wanna give up, wanna give in,
I wanna quit the fight
And then I see you baby,
And everything’s alright, everything’s alright
When I see you smile,
I can face the world ooh
You know I can do anything
When I see you smile, I see a ray of light ooh
I see it shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Baby when I see you smile at me
Oh yeah
Baby there nothing in this world
that could ever do,
What the touch of your hand can do
It’s like nothing that I ever knew
And when then rain is falling,
I can feel it, caus you’re here with me now
And one look at ya baby
It’s all I’ll ever need
It’s all I’ll ever need
When I see you smile,
I can face the world ooh
You know I can do anything
When I see you smile, I see a ray of light ooh
I see it shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Baby when I see you smile at me
Sometimes I wanna give up,
I wanna give in,
I wanna quit the fight
Then one look at ya baby
and everything’s alright,
Yeah, everything’s alright
So right
When I see you smile,
I can face the world ooh
You know I can do anything, yeah
When I see you smile,
I see a ray of light ooh
I see it shining right through the rain Yeah
When I see you smile,
yeah I can face the world ooh
You know I can do anything
When I see you smile, oh yeah, baby when
I see you, smile
Smile at me
