Didn't know how many sweaters and hoodies I had 'Til I packed 'em in a box Mama tried to hide the tears in her eyes As I threw 'em in the back of the truck As she hugged me tight, I knew I'd have to be the first to let go 'Fore I drove away, I heard her say, "be safe and, baby, don't Stay gone too long Don't forget to call Hope you think of me when you catch all your dreams Without you, this house ain't a home Don't stay gone too long No, don't stay gone too long" Not even twenty-one, I wasn't lookin' for love No, you weren't a part of my plan My only home was that wide-open road Until I held your hand It's late nights on the phone Two different time zones It's goodbyes and southbound planes But I love you enough to wait Don't stay gone too long Don't forget to call Hope you think of me when you catch all your dreams Without you, this house ain't a home Don't stay gone too long 2 a.m. when I got the call Mama said, "we don't got much time" So I flew home did what no one wants to And told Grandma goodbye As she hugged me tight, I knew she'd have to be the first to let go Before it was time, she closed her eyes, I said, please, don't Stay gone too long Wish Heaven had a phone I'll see you in my dreams when you watch over me Without you, this place ain't a home Don't stay gone too long Don't stay gone too long

C-Smile, though your heart is aching Smile, even though it's breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by If you smile through your fears and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through for you Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
