I Smile - Kirk Franklin.mp3

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Kirk Franklin/Fred Tackett/James Harris, III/Terry Lewis
[00:03.620]I dedicate this song to recession, depression and unemployment
[00:12.130]This song's for you
[00:14.160]Today's a new day
[00:17.460]But there is no sunshine
[00:20.930]Nothing but clouds and it's dark in my heart
[00:23.740]And it feels like a cold night
[00:27.400]Today's a new day
[00:30.900]But where are my blue skies
[00:34.230]Where is the love and the joy that you promised me
[00:37.480]Tell me it's alright
[00:40.060]I'll be honest with you
[00:41.430]I almost gave up but a power that I can't explain
[00:48.340]Fell from Heaven like a shower now
[00:51.880]When I think how much better I'm gon' be when this is over
[00:54.680]I smile
[00:56.700]Even though I hurt, see, I smile
[01:00.060]I know God is working so I smile
[01:03.330]Even though I've been here for a while
[01:05.700]What you do? I smile
[01:07.760]Come on then, smile
[01:09.900]It's so hard to look up when you've been down
[01:13.230]Sure would hate to see you give up now
[01:15.760]God's people, you look so much better when you smile
[01:19.740]So smile
[01:22.460]Now every day ain't gon' be perfect
[01:24.740]But it still don't mean today don't have purpose, come on
[01:27.560]Today's a new day
[01:30.600]But there is no sunshine
[01:34.200]Nothing but clouds and it's dark in my heart
[01:37.060]And it feels like a cold night
[01:39.460]It ain't easy, but
[01:40.940]today's a new day
[01:43.760]Tell me where are my blue skies
[01:46.460]Where is that love yo?
[01:47.680]Where is the love and the joy that you promised me
[01:50.840]Tell me it's alright
[01:54.280]The truth is, I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain
[01:59.800]That Holy Ghost power, yo
[02:01.840]Fell from Heaven like a shower now
[02:05.300]Now know we've been hurt yo, but still
[02:08.000]I smile

[02:19.220]Still, I smile
[02:20.980]Hallelujah, smile
[02:23.400]It's so hard to look up when you've been down
