Lyrics
When You Smile
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's like I never had to see it in your eyes or feel it
I could tell when you smile.
It's like I didn't need to say anything or do much, I could tell
When you smile
All of the subatomic pieces come together and
Unfold themselves in a second...
Every single molecule is right, when
All of the subatomic pieces come together and unfold
Themselves in a second.
