Josh Ritter Bright Smile Lyrics

Now my work is done,
I feel I'm owed some joy.
Oh Imogene and Abelard,
I'm your homeward boy.

But there's another one,
Who brings me to your door.
And the boat she weaved from the tidal reeds,
Was always tied to shore.

(Chorus)
With bright smiles and dark eyes,
Bright smile, dark eyes.
Everywhere I went oh,
I was always looking for ya,
Bright smile, dark eyes.

I'm looking for some peace,
But it's so hard to find.
With Calamity Janes and Steamboat Casanovas,
And Darling Clementines.

If she's your only one,
Then she is also mine.
Just pin your heartbeat up against my heartbeat,
And you'll see how well we rhyme.

(Chorus)

Man is only half himself,
The other half is a bright thing.
He tumbles on by luck or grace,
For man is ever a blind thing.

(Chorus)
