I'll deck my brow with roses the false one will be there
The gems that others gave me will shine within my hair
And even they who know me will think my heart is light
Though my heart may break tomorrow I'll be all smiles tonight
Chorus
I'll be all smiles tonight love, I'll be all smiles tonight
Though my heart may break tomorrow I'll be all smiles tonight
ii
And when the room he enters the bride upon his arm
I'll stand and gaze upon him as if he were a charm As now he smiles upon her so once he smiled on me
They know not how I suffer they'll see no change in me
Repeat chorus
III
And when the dance is over and all have gone to rest
I'll think of him dear mother the one that I loved best
He once did love believe me but now has grown cold and strange
He sought not to deceive me false friends have caused this change
Repeat chorus
I'll be all smiles tonight love,etc......
