Smile & Space 2

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It’s not the words you say to me,
It’s not how long you stay.
It’s not the plans, the texts, the time—
Those all fade anyway.
But when I walk in tired and small,
And I see your eyes lift my way…
You flash that smile, like “Don’t you move.”
That’s when I know I can stay.

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t brace, you don’t stall,
You don’t check your watch at all.
You just shift, like it’s instinct,
And pat the place where I fall.

[Chorus]
Smile… and make space.
That’s how I know I’m in the right place.
Not tolerated, not passed through—
But like I belong just for being true.
You smile—like it caught you off guard.
And scoot—like your heart isn’t hard.
No words can replace
When you smile… and make space.

[Verse 2]
I’ve sat in rooms where no one saw
That I was folding in.
Where every nod just felt rehearsed,
And silence felt like sin.
But I’ve also seen it—rare and clean—
A face that lights like flame.
A motion small, a welcome call,
That says, “Come sit. I’m glad you came.”

[Pre-Chorus]
Not a fix, not a task,
Not a question I didn’t ask.
Just a human, being kind,
Saying “Right here,” without a mask.

[Chorus]
Smile… and make space.
Don’t explain, don’t overstate.
Just a look that says, “Stay right there.”
And a seat pulled out like a prayer.
You smile—like I gave you a gift.
And scoot—like the world doesn’t shift.
And somehow erase
All the years no one made space.

[Bridge]
I don’t need you to fix the ache,
Just don’t flinch when I come near.
Don’t pause like you’re being polite—
Be glad I’m here. Just be glad I’m here.

[Final Chorus]
Smile… and make space.
Let your heart show on your face.
Don’t wait for me to disappear—
Make it clear that I belong here.
You smile—like I’m already known.
And move—like I’m not alone.
There’s nothing that can take its place—
That smile… and that space.

[Outro – whispered or faded]
Smile and make space.
That’s what saves.
