Smiling Phases — текст песни (Blood, Sweat and Tears)

(Steve Winwood, James Capaldi, Chris Wood)
(These lyrics are as BS&T performed the song, original lyrics differ slightly)

Do yourself a favor,
Wake up to your mind
Life is what you make it
You see, but still you`re blind

Get yourself together,
Give before you take
You`ll find out the hard way,
Soon you`re gonna break
Hey hey hey

Smiling phases
Showing traces
Even if they bust you
Keep on smiling through and through
And you`ll be amazed at the gaze
On their faces as they sentence you

You don`t need a lawyer
When you`re in a fix
Someone gets to pay up
Your friends are full of tricks
But happiness is something
That you just can`t buy
Own up to the truth girl,
Your love has gone on by

Smiling Phases bring you flowers
You can line `em up
And you can watch `em grow for hours
And you`ll be amazed at the way that they stare
as they walk by your door.


Do yourself a favor,
Wake up to your mind
Life is what you make it
You see, but still you`re blind

Get yourself together,
Give before you take
You`ll find out the hard way,
Soon you`re gonna break
Hey hey hey

Smiling phases
Going Places
Even if they bust you
Keep on smiling through and through
And you`ll be amazed at the gaze
On their faces as they sentence...you!!
