A Thousand Smiles

Shall I tell you a story

A story of a poor little boy

A little boy who met a little girl with a thousand smiles

He named each one of her smiles

He filled his room with her pictures

When she left there was nothing left but a thousand smiles

He held her tightly the last minute before goodbye

This is what he whispered

"There's nothing I will forget

nothing I won't forgive

I never thought I'd come to this

Can't you see

Nothing I can regret

Nothing I won't miss

but I can hide it for now

'cause you gave me a thousand ways to smiles"

It occurred a dozen years later

The next day was his 23rd birthday

His idle life ended up in shooting a girl

He cursed his whole lost life

in a tiny concrete cage

He looked around and found there's nothing

left in his hands

He held himself tightly the last minute

before goodbye

This is what he whispered

"There's nothing I will forget

nothing I won't forgive

I never thought I'd come to this

Can't you see

Nothing I can regret

Nothing I won't miss

but I can hide it for now

'cause you gave me a thousand ways to smiles"

He held himself tightly in front of the gallows

This is what he whispered

"Nothing I will forget

nothing I won't forgive

I never thought I'd come to this

Can't you see

Nothing I can regret

Nothing I won't miss

but I can hide it for now

'cause you gave me a thousand ways to smiles"

"Nothing I will forget

nothing I won't forgive

I never thought I'd come to this

Can't you see

Nothing I can regret

Nothing I won't miss

but I can hide it for now

'cause you gave me a thousand ways to smiles"

So..I'm..m..m..only
