When Irish Eyes Are Smilin' - Bing Crosby

There’s a tear in your eye, And I’m wondering why

For it never should be there at all

With such pow’r in your smile, Sure a stone you’d beguile

So there’s never a teardrop should fall

When your sweet lilting laughter’s Like some fairy song

And your eyes twinkle bright as can be;

You should laugh all the while And all other times smile

And now, smile a smile for me

When Irish eyes are smiling

Sure, 'tis like the morn in Spring

In the lilt of Irish laughter

You can hear the angels sing

When Irish hearts are happy

All the world seems bright and gay

And when Irish eyes are smiling

Sure, they steal your heart away

For your smile is a part Of the love in your heart

And it makes even sunshine more bright

Like the linnet’s sweet song, Crooning all the day long

Comes your laughter and light

For the springtime of life Is the sweetest of all

There is ne’er a real care or regret;

And while springtime is ours Throughout all of youth’s hours

Let us smile each chance we get
