Christopher Cross - When She Smiles lyrics

Well, they met in line at the checkout stand Both unaware of what the gods had planned She was lost in her Cosmo reading 'bout the stars He was reading 'bout 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 overs**ed 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, 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 And she smiled I'm just diggin' her diggin' me diggin' her 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 I'm just diggin' her diggin' me diggin' her 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 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 I'm just diggin' her diggin' me diggin' her When she smiles, I come all undone When she smiles, I'm the only one
