Lyrics

Self Opposing Smile
Written by: James Elliott

Mother never had life easy

She was born a working girl

Married Father brought me up

She did it well

Father never made it home

From the biggest 'C ' there ever was

Now he' s up in Heaven

Where the Angel' s roam

-

So I abandoned childhood

Many troubled dreams I saw

One and an half parents gone

An empty home

I took my car and drove

The daylight flickered on my mirror

Drawn towards my self- opposing smile

-

Now why do we resist?

Hold me close

Just look to the Sun, my Son

There' s always the Sun

Just look where the Star' s were begun

There' s always the Sun

-

I looked up to sky

And the sky it turned to black as if to prompt the Sun's reply

But the Sun it wasn 't bright enough

Though the world from every day on

Turned a shade more to the night

-

Now why do I resist

I' m losing my sight

Just look to the Sun, my Son

There' s always the Sun

Just look where the Star' s were begun

There' s always the Sun
