The autumn of this winter, I've forgotten how to breathe,
made my mind up three times or more, simple life of make-believe.
My head was in the clouds, feet nailed to the floor,
my right hand held the hammer, left knows what my right hand's for.
 
[Bridge]

  But I'm still waiting,
it seems to me I spend my whole life   anticipating.
 
[Chorus]

But when I laugh, when I smile, I could leap tall buildings, run a mile,

  I laugh   and then I smile.
  
[Verse 2]

I have a house and children, I have everything I need,

voice concern but I don't complain, remember I've four mouths to feed.
 
[Bridge]
  But I'm, I'm still waiting
and it seems to me that I've spent my whole life   anticipating.
 
[End-Chorus]

When I laugh, when I smile, I could leap tall buildings, run a mile,
I laugh   and then I smile.
So, when I laugh and smile, I could leap tall buildings, run a mile,
I laugh   and then I smile,   I do.
