lyrics

Bright Smile (S. Sinner)
My coffee grows cold as I come back from
My ten step trip to make the CD switch
I could swear that a sip from my cup was gone
And the rim of it was cold as ice

Again I hear the hardwood floor
With descending creaks like smallish feet
Walk out and just like before
They're all asleep except for me

(With her) Her firefly eyes guarding me
Her voice comes faint on a chill
In the midnight moon through the trees
Her bright smile haunts me still21

A single flower magnolia each night
She leaves beside my bed. You see and
In this way she broke me in time
Now I can’t sleep, I only dream

In the southern summer’s tired heat
I don’t so much mind the chill
As the sunlight spills through the leaves
Her bright smile haunts me still

21 The last line, though not the melody, is from an old sailor song of the same name, 'Her bright smile haunts me still.'

They got it all so when these boys are randy to rock, you better let 'em. ... more
