Lyrics When Joanie Smiles - Rare Earth

When Joanie Smiles

I know it’s late in the night but I turn on the light
To just look at the life I share
She turns in the bed and uncovers her head
That’s when I know she cares
That’s when I know she cares
When Joanie smiles
And when she’s back in her dreams and I talk and it seems she’s still tellin'
me all that she feels
The look on her face makes it easy to trace all the love that mere words can’t
reveal
The love that mere words can’t reveal
When Joanie smiles I feel the moment upsets the world
And I have got a lighter life
The sun will shine a little brighter in my heart
And any words I might say are just taking away from a feeling I can’t quite
define
For all of the hearts are just a part of a part of a love that I know is mine
A love that I know is mine
When Joanie smiles
When Joanie smiles
When Joanie smiles
