    Smile

    by Charles Chaplin

    Sung by Michael Jackson


    Sung by Nat King Cole

    Smile, though your heart is aching Smile though your heart is aching
    Smile, even though it's breaking Smile even though it’s breaking
    When there are clouds in the sky When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
    You'll get by... If you smile through your fear and sorrow
    Smile and maybe tomorrow
    If you smile You’ll see the sun come shining through for you
    With your fear and sorrow
    Smile and maybe tomorrow Light up your face with gladness
    You'll find that life is still worthwhile Hide every trace of sadness
    If you just... Although a tear may be ever so near
    That’s the time you must keep on trying
    Light up your face with gladness
    Smile, what’s the use of crying?
    Hide every trace of sadness
    You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
    Although a tear may be ever so near
    If you just smile
    That's the time you must keep on trying
