Just A Smile

There are a million reasons to smile and be free
It's always good to be happy with glee
Life will always be gloomy or bright
You just have to have the might
Cause life is always like that

I am a girl who is always grumpy
They say I always look sulky
But I just can't erase the frown permanently
There are many times when I see me in the dark
Finding my way across the park
I go down on my knees
I keep on saying please
But I just couldn't say cheese

Still there's hope in solving my tribulations
I know that life would give me my expectations
For there are a million reasons to smile in expressions
