Is it something on the ground
'Cos it's sunshine all around
Don't you wanna see it?
Is there something I could say
That'll make it all okay
And help you to believe it?

I feel so weak
Watching you sink

Why won't you smile
Just for a little while?
Just for a moment?
You can show it, it's alright
Why won't you smile?
Give it a try
Just let it shine
Oh, why won't you smile?

Your tears have gone away
They leave you with the stains
There's no denying
You hide behind your hair
And your bitter broken stare
I know that you've been crying

What did you lose?
What can I do?

Why won't you smile
Just for a little while?
Just for a moment?
You can show it, it's alright
Why won't you smile?
Give it a try
Just let it shine
Oh, why won't you smile?

So the world can see
Smile, if not just for me
Oh smile, uh

Why won't you smile
Just for a little while?
Just for a moment?
You can show it, it's alright
Why won't you smile?
Give it a try
Just let it shine
Oh, why won't you smile?
Uh
Why won't you smile
