A Certain Smile

Astrud Gilberto

Compositor: Paul Francis Webster / Sammy Fain

But in the hush of night
Exactly like a bitter sweet refrain
Comes that certain smile
To haunt your heart again

A certain smile, a certain face
Can lead an unsuspecting heart
On a merry chase
Afleeting glance can say
So many lovely things
Suddenly I know why my heart sings

You love awhile and when love goes
You try to hide the tears inside
With a cheerful pose

But in the hush of night
Exactly like a bitter sweet refrain
Comes that certain smile
To haunt your heart again
