When You’re Smiling (The Whole World Smiles With You) Lyrics by Seger Ellis

When You Said “Good-Night” (Did You Really Mean ”Good Bye”?)

1928

I saw a blind man, he was a kind man
Helping a fellow along
One could not see, one could not walk
But they both were humming this song;
When you're smiling, when you're smiling
The whole world smiles with you
When you're laughing, when you're laughing
The sun comes shining through
But when you're crying you bring on the rain
So stop your sighing, be happy again
Keep on smiling 'cause when you're smiling
The whole world smiles with you
When you're smiling, when you're smiling
Well, the whole world smiles with you
When you're laughing, when you'rе laughing
The sun comes shining through
But when you'rе crying you bring on the rain
So stop your sighing, be happy again
Just keep on smiling 'cause when you're smiling
Well, the whole world keeps on smiling with you
