Lyrics
I Want To Make 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.
When I run too fast, slow me down
When I run to far, turn me around
Sometimes life becomes an endless waste
Sometimes love can't stand the lonely pace.
Each day goes by much too fast
Tomorrow soon becomes the past
Lost in struggle I'm making my way
Not taking time enough to simply say:
I love you, forgive me
I know it's been a while
I love you, I wanna stop the world
And make you smile.
Too many days I forgot to take your time
To say I love you and thank you for being mine
Those simple words I sometimes forget to say
We'll be on my lips at the wake of each new day.
I love you ...
But you know I love you
I wanna stop the world and make you smile
If it's not too late to make you smile.
