like your charm, your face,
just everything.
But the thing I think of the most
is that smile of yours.
Everytime I see it,
my cuore skips a beat
and my thoughts get Lost in it.
Your smile gives me butterflys in my stomach.
Your smile makes angeli sing, a song that fills the streets.
Without that smile,
there is no joy in this world.
No one can replace it.
There is no mistake that when te smile,
that wonderful, beautiful smile,
the world turns into a better place.
To: My LOVE, Michael Joseph Jackson
