There’s a friend of mine
Sometimes I used to see his handsome face looking so sad
Then he met some one
Who told him there’d be no more suffering and no more bad
So now he’s put away that frown
And he can only make one sound
And he’s all smiles
There’s a friend of mine
Sometimes I used to see her cracking up under the strain
Then she met someone
Who told her there’d be no more misery and no more pain
A happy face is what she’s found
She’s turned that frown up side down
And she’s all smiles
There’s some friends of mine
Sometimes they used to whisper they were tired of being strong.
Then they found something
that told them it was all a dream and there was nothing wrong
they’re looking on the sunny side
and I just want to run and hide
Run and hide
Cause they’re all smiles
And he’s all smiles.
