This song is dedicated to a very special friend of mine. I've been wanting to write a song for this person for quite awhile now but due to my songwriter's block I had for so long, words would never come. I've finally broken out of it though and I've been constantly writing lyrics in my spare time.
Anyway, once I found the right inspiration, this song took me only about an hour to complete. I always find that my most special and personal songs are the easiest/fastest to write because they are so honest and I'm just putting my true thoughts into poetic form (for example, My Song For You is my favorite original and I wrote it in less than two hours).
This song is dedicated to a very close friend of mine. You know exactly who you are because you are the person always telling me to...
Keep Smiling
Verse:
I'm not sure how this happened
Don't know where you came from
But somehow it's like I was
Always meant to find youThere's just something about you
That brightens up my day
Even in my worst of times
You make the darkness go awayPrechorus:
Do you know how much you mean to me?
Oh, I couldn't live without you here
By my side, you're my everything
And I want to tell youChorus:
Even when we're thousands
Of miles away, it's okay
'Cause you're still by my side
In my heart tonightJust stay here, don't let me go
'Cause I need you and I hope you know
That you are the reason I
Keep smilingVerse:
If I lost you I'd be broken
I couldn't go another day
'Cause you're the reason I can smile
Even when my life is upside downPrechorus:
Do you know how much you mean to me?
Oh, I couldn't live without you here
By my side, you're my everything
And I want to tell youChorus:
Even when we're thousands
Of miles away, it's okay
'Cause you're still by my side
In my heart tonightJust stay here, don't let me go
'Cause I need you and I hope you know
That you are the reason I
Keep smilingBridge:
I know the rain is pouring down
But there's a rainbow after all of this
Believe me when I say
Soon it all will be okayChorus:
Even when we're thousands
Of miles away, it's okay
'Cause I'm still by your side
In your heart tonightI'll stay here, I won't let go
If you need me, I hope you know
That I can be the reason you
Keep smiling
