A song about smiles, emotions and love. • words by J. Will Callahan • music by Lee S. Roberts • Lyrics • 1. Dearie, now I know, just what makes me love you so • Just what holds me and enfolds me, in its golden glow • Dearie, now I see, 'tis each smile so bright and free • For life's sadness turns to gladness, when you smile on me • Refrain: • There are smiles that make us happy • There are smiles that make us blue • There are smiles that steal away the teardrops • As the sunbeams steal away the dew • There are smiles that have a tender meaning • That the eyes of love alone may see • And the smiles that fill my life with sunshine • Are the smiles that you give to me • 2. Dearie, when you smile, everything in life's worthwhile • Love grows fonder as we wander, down each magic mile • Cheery melodies, seem to float upon the breeze • Doves are cooing while they're wooing, in the leafy trees • This idea came from a music dealer's business convention where a lecturer talked about the value of smiles. The lyricist altered the application from business to love relationships. Smiles was popular during the WWI years and was a happy morale booster for the country. The music can be used for Fox Trot at a medium speed as here, or faster. • ----------------------------------------------------- • Sung here by Fred Feild. • Get the sheet music and MIDI at: • https://www.sheetmusicsinger.com/smiles/
