Bright light almost blinding
Black night still there shining
I can't stop, keep on climbing
Looking for what I knew

Had a friend, she once told me
'You got love, you ain't lonely'
Now, she's gone and left me only
Looking for what I knew

Mmm, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy, just-a

Met a man on the roadside crying
Without a friend, there's no denying
You're incomplete, they'll be no finding
Looking for what you knew

So anytime somebody needs ya
Don't let them down, although it grieves ya
Some day you'll need someone like they do
Looking for what you knew

Mmm, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy, just-a

Oh yeah, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma

I'm telling you now, the greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy, it's very easy, it's very easy
It's easy, yeah, yeah
