I'll be all smiles tonight
I'll deck my brow with roses the
loved ones may be there
And gems that others gave me will
shine within my hair
And even those who know me will
think my heart in light
Though my heart may break tomorrow,
I'll be all smiles tonight
I'll be all
smiles tonight, Love, I'll be all smiles tonight
Though my heart
may break tomorrow, I'll be all smiles tonight
Oh when the dance commences, Oh how
I will rejoice
I'll sing the songs he taught me without a
faultering voice
When the flattering ones come around
me they'll think my heart is light
Though my heart may break tomorrow,
I'll be all smile tonight
And when the room he entered with a
bride upon his arm
I stood and gazed upon him as though
he was a charm
And once he smiled upon her as once he'd smiled
on me
They knew not
what I suffered, they found no change in me
((And when the dance is over and all
have gone to rest
I'll think of him, dear Mother, the one that I love best
He
once did love me dearly and ne'er from me would part
He sought not to deceive me, false
friends have changed his heart))
