Smile Carrie smile!
Remember when mum used to rub your tiny feet?
Bathed you in warm water and served you donuts
Your world was small and the smile never left your face
I recall your innocent laughter when poppye played around you
You joined school and teachers liked you
Smart demeanor and an elegant stride when puberty met you
You loved to dance with pete and smallie after school and play
Your birthday cake came late at 16
Often you let off your guard and let pete catch a peck on your cheek
Where has all the laughter gone
Can you still feel your heart beat
Do you still dance to the rhythm of the universe under the night skies
You caught a fever doctors said your lungs were weak
But your heart is strong and the fight ensues
On the mirror you look a little sulky but your light shines
Curly hair no comb but the boys loved that
Through seasons your smile has disappeared
You took their mockery with a light heart now look at them
Put on your smile and hold your shoulders up higher
Listen not to their careless whispers
Deep within is a voice that speaks clear
Be sure through it all your soul wins and your smile is the crown
Smile Carrie smile, the morning is bright the day is yours!
