Charcoal eyes fill this night
Hope they dont see through mine
And they're telling me I gotta leave
But I dont know how to stay
Theres so much more for me
In the land of smiles
In the land of smiles

Familiar faces fill my mind
Pray they dont leave with the tide
And I don't think they know
Oh, just what they've done
Deep within my soul
In the land of smiles
In the land of smiles

I close my eyes and Im there in that place
My skins so fair compared
And as I lay here
I ask in my dreams,
Take me back to the place I have seen
The land of smiles
