IF NOBODY SMILED
If nobody smiled and nobody cared,
and nobody helped us along...
If every moment looked after itself
And good things all went to the strong...
If nobody cared at all about you
And nobody cared about me,
And we stood alone in the battle of life,
what a dreary old world this would be!
Life is sweet because of the friends we have made
And the things in common we share,
We want to live on, not because of ourselves
But because of the people who care.
It is doing and giving for somebody else
On which much of life's splendor depends.
The joy of this world, when you've summed it all up
Is found in the making of friends!
