Smile A Little Smile For Me - Flying Machine, The (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Smile A Little Smile For Me (Flying Machine, The, 1969). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-10-25. "Keeping the Oldies & Classics Alive"
"Smile A Little Smile For Me," written by Tony MacAulay and Geoff Stephens, was the Flying Machine's debut release and only top 40 hit landing at the no. 5 position in 1969; the group is officially a one-hit wonder (Whitburn, 2013). The group was a studio project by MacAulay and Stephens; when the song became a hit, they put together a touring group featuring Tony Newman as its lead vocalist (B. Eder, music.apple, 2022; geezermusicclub, 2018; Whitburn, 2013). MacAulay was also the co-writer of Edison Lighthouse's single hit "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) (Whitburn, 2013)..

Lyrics:
You really should accept
This time he's gone for good
He'll never come back now
Even though he said he would
So, darling, dry your eyes
So many other guys
Would give the world I'm sure
To wear the shoes he wore
Oh, come on
Smile a little smile for me, Rosemarie
What's the use in cryin'?
In a little while you'll see, Rosemarie
You must keep on tryin'
I know that he hurt you bad
I know, darling, don't be sad and
Smile a little smile for me, Rosemarie, Rosemarie
I guess you're lonely now
Love's comin' to an end
But, darling, only now
Are you free to start again
Lift up your pretty chin
Don't let those tears begin
You're a big girl now
And you'll pull through somehow
Oh, come on
Smile a little smile for me, Rosemarie
What's the use in cryin'?
In a little while you'll see, Rosemarie
You must keep on tryin'
I know that he hurt you bad
I know, darling, don't be sad and
Smile a little smile for me, Rosemarie, Rosemarie
Smile a little smile for me, Rosemarie, Rosemarie
