That plastic covered sofa and the
Tightly crocheted doilies on the chair
This ole house is priceless even though
I bet nobody else but me would care
While the piano plays the songs we
Sing on Sundays and delivers us a special prayer
I look beyond these paneled walls I feel the
Warmth and tender love no one can compare
Reflecting on the words you said that day
It's better to smile than to frown your life away
Your eyes hold so much passion it shows in your sweet gaze
You want to tell me more but there aren't enough ways
You're biggest smallest fan asks questions just to understand
The wrinkles on your face and you tell her with such grace
It's from a lifetime of smiles
A lifetime of smiles
Thank you for your candor it takes away my fears
In knowing that your wrinkles are from laughter and not tears
I'm going to miss it when you don't answer your phone and
I'll miss your way of sharing this someday when they are grown
I appreciate the moments each one precious on their own
The time we have together and things you don't dare postpone
You're biggest smallest fan asks questions just to understand
The wrinkles on your face and you tell her with such grace
It's from a lifetime of smiles
I've had a lifetime of smiles
A lifetime of smiles
