"A Friendly Smile"

I always asked myself
How life would be
Without a friend to share it with
I realized this would be a lonely place for me

So I reach my hand across
To see if you would mind
An understanding from someone's touch
And loneliness could be left behind

So now I wish to say
Maybe the next time we see each other
A friendly smile would greet me
I'll smile back and become friends to one another
