Performed by Buddy Clark

WWI Era Song

Dearie, now I know
Just what makes me love you so,
Just what holds me and enfolds me
In its golden glow;
Dearie, now I see
’Tis each smile so bright and free,
For life’s sadness turns to gladness
When you smile on me.

[chorus]
There are smiles that make us happy,
There are smiles that make us blue,
There are smiles that steal away the tear-drops,
As the sunbeams steal away the dew,
There are smiles that have a tender meaning
That the eyes of love alone can see,
And the smiles that fill my life with sunshine
Are the smiles that you give to me

There are smiles that have a tender meaning
That the eyes of love alone can see,
And the smiles that fill my life with sunshine
Are the smiles that you give to me
