Listen "If I Could Only Smile"
Episode Synopsis
It is about the daily living of someone in an assisted living facility. This is about my Mother's life and many others who live there but was really inspired by another man I met in another facililty. Lyrics: If I could only smile could you just sit a while and fill my empty heart and find that puzzle part if I could only smile I sit alone and think / a lot of stuff like when I used to / have enough of friends and family / by my side and grandkids who took me / for a ride Now it's silence as / my company My closest friend / is monotony. My schedule today looks / mighty lean no good reason to get / up and clean Chorus I watch the clock tick / on the wall and check my phone / for just any call I guess it's time for / coffee or tea and have the newspaper / read to me Instead, I pick up my / photo book and give my pictures / another look. I wish they weren't so / far away. They may just visit on / another day. Family pictures / make me smile for just a / little while it fills my /empty heart just like a / puzzle part if I could only smile
