Verse 1:

Can I cry a little bit

There's nobody to notice it

Can't I cry if I want to no one cares

Why can't I pretend

That you love me again

All I've had has been taken from me

Now I'm cryin' and tears don't become me

Chorus:

Just one smile, the pain's forgiven

Just one kiss, [2: girl, now] the hurt's all gone

Just one smile to make my life worth living

A little dream to build my world upon

bass w/organ:

v v v v v v v v

v v v v v v v v

Verse 2:

How I wish I could say

All the things that I want to say

If some way you could see what's in my heart

I don't ask for much

A look, a smile, a touch

Try to forget, well the Lord knows I'm tryin'

But it's so hard to forget, girl, when your whole world is dyin'

[repeat chorus and bass/organ section]

[instrumental break over verse 1 chords; vocal re-enters at "try to forget"]
