Lyrics

My Smile Is a Rifle

My smile is a rifle

Won't you give it a try?

So you like the way we dance dreaming?

When notes come to you

You know I love you

You're all I see–

My smile is a rifle

And what are you?

My smile is a rifle

And I'm pointing it at you

My smile is a rifle

You'll know when you bring me in from the rain
