A SMILE LIKE THAT song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

I walked into an old saloon
everyone laughing at the new moon
dancing and drinking all full of desire
a million perfumes filled the night like a fire

I was alone in a crowd restaurant
did not really know what the hell did I want
she walked in like a siamese cat
how could I resist
a smile like that

she looked me over with cat-like eyes
in back of her laugh I could hear a surprise
it seemed like the room went suddenly dark
when I touched her hand it created a spark

how we got outta there I'll never know
I said let's do it and she said let's go
I didn't know where the hell I was at
how could I resist
a smile like that

a smile like that
comes once in a dream
a smile like that
is more that it seems
a smile like that
makes the whole world alive
a smile like that
and so we arrived

the taxicab pulled up to the hotel
I went to the door and we rang the bell
that was the most wonderful wonderful night
that I ever had in my whole goddam life

and when came the dawn she couldn't be found
I ran out the door and down to the ground
now I walk the wire like an acrobat
looking to find
a smile like that

a smile like that
takes up your whole heart
a smile like that
but she had a head start
a smile like that
some day I will find
a smile like that
or I will lose my mind
