INTRO :
VERSE 1
She told me my love,
we ll never die
She told me life s quite nice long as you got both your feet on the ground
She told me my boy
Why would I lie?
Look on the bright side, it s no big deal you ll see dry your eyes
CHORUS
Why do you smile, all the time?
Why can t I laugh like you can?
Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la
Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la
VERSE 2
She picks me up
When they put me down
She cheers me up while my many dreams and the world around me collide
She knows the secret
To please her man
She s got the knack of turning tears into radiant smiles
CHORUS
     Â
Why do you smile, all the time?
Why can t I laugh like you can?
     Â
Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la
Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la
BRIDGE
Why does she smile, why can t I laugh like she can?
She sees the sunshine when all I see s the clouds
She keeps on saying things cannot be that bad
She always knows how to convey the right vibe
CHORUS
Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la, Oula-la-la
