When She Smiles
Christopher Cross

Well they met in line at the checkout stand

Both unaware of what the gods had planned

She was lost in her Cosmo readin' about the stars

He was readin' about two-headed babies from Mars

When she reached for a Snickers she dropped her keys

And so began one of life's mysteries

He was a little old-fashioned and a little oversexed

He picked them up never guessing what would happen next


Then she smiled and said I like your tie

Yeah she smiled and told him that little white lie

And his soul lit up like the fourth of July

When she smiled


They made it to Starbuck's just before it closed

He pointed to the jar and said you want one of those

So over biscotti and double decafs

They shared their stories and they had some laughs

He got up his courage and asked her back to his place

Then he held his breath as he studied her face

She just sat and she stared and she said nothing at all

He knew he blew it and he waited for the ax to fall


Then she smiled and he knew he hadn't been wrong

Yeah she smiled and said what took you so long

And the world felt good like a rock and roll song

When she smiled


When she smiles I forget my lines

When she smiles man I'm on cloud nine

When she smiles oh it's time out of mind

When she smiles


Then she smiled and said where you been all my life

And she smiled when he asked her to be his wife

And the future had never looked so bright

When she smiled


I'm just diggin' her diggin' me diggin' her


When she smiles I forget my lines

When she smiles man I'm on cloud nine

When she smiles oh it's time out of mind

When she smiles


When she smiles I come all undone

When she smiles I'm the only one

When she smiles I'm a smoking gun

When she smiles
