What is this restlessness I'm feeling?
It grows every time I see people not smiling;
I know I cannot let them stay that way
or this world will crumble away.
I'm reaching the point of no return;
It's too strong and I am starting to burn,
Turning into the power of laughter,
Sending my waves to make the world better.
I wanna scream and laugh out loud!
and be heard everywhere!
I wanna be seen smiling and laughing!
so people will know that I care!

With Desire, Smile, and Laughter,

Not everyone will smile back at us. I don't bother, if they seem grumpy. Or they may be preoccupied with something on their mind.
Great tune! And your desire shines through loud and clear
Thank you!
I think i know the feeling you describe.
It amazes me how many people walk around with a scowl on their face.
Happiness and mirth.
It backfires sometimes.... but a smile is always worth it.... I have had people flash me a smile for no reason and it has made my day.
