day :19 a song that makes you want to cry

One of the 30 Challange ideas was a song that makes you want to cry. For me it is a songs that is sad, inspirational, and hauntingly beautiful all rolled into one.

Smile by Charlie Chaplin (this version is performed by the Glee cast)




The lyrics are below

Smile though your heart is aching



Smile even though it's breaking


When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by


If you smile through your fear and sorrow


Smile and maybe tomorrow


You'll see the sun come shining through for you






Light up your face with gladness


Hide every trace of sadness


Although a tear may be ever so near


That's the time you must keep on trying


Smile, what's the use of crying?


You'll find that life is still worthwhile


If you just smile


That's the time you must keep on trying


Smile, what's the use of crying?


You'll find that life is still worthwhile


If you just smile

So smile on my darlings-- Have a GREAT weekend. Enjoy the sun and last couple of weeks of summer adventures!

lots of love,
ASH
