Smile in my pocket

Lyrics to a song I wrote a while back

Smile in my pocket...

 

I've got your picture in my wallet,

To remind me why I get up every day,

And it's lucky that I've got it,

'Cos today I nearly threw it all away.

'Cos I work so hard but get nowhere,

No matter what I do or what I say,

But with your smile in my pocket,

Baby girl, I think I'm gonna be okay.

 

'Cos you

              are my star.

And you shine so very brightly,

'Cos you don't know how bright you are.

 

Yeah, you

               are the light.

'Cos you rescued me from what I was,

And you turned every wrong into a right.

 

I've got this morning's kiss still on my lips,

And I don't wanna wash the taste away,

I depend on every thing you do and

Every single word your lips might say,

It's so hard to get up out this bed when

Honey all I wanna do is stay,

But with your smile in my pocket,

Baby girl I think I'll make it through the day.

 

'Cos you

              are my star

And you shine so very brightly,

'Cos you don't know how bright you are.

 

Yeah, you

               are the light.

'Cos you rescued me from what I was,

And you turned every wrong into a right.
