You ready?
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
Then I could smile into your arms
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
I could blow mans into your charm
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
Then I could walk into the Sun
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
I’d become, become someone
If I could play guitar like Django
If I was real like Jimmy Dean
If I could be the cool of Brando
Then I could really live the dream
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
Then I could walk into the Sun
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
I’d become, become someone
Become someone
If I could waltz or do the tango
Walking on air like Fred Astaire
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
Then maybe
Then you’ll see
That I live in a place that’s less ordinary
Smile like a king
Am I complicated, overrated, now?
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
Be on reality TV
If I could smile the smile of Elvis
Then maybe I could be me
Smile the smile
Smile
