本トラックについて，彼自身のコメントがライナーノーツにありました。
"Randy Newman wrote this song and I changed the arrangement a little bit from when I first heard it on a Gene Pitney session. It was always fun to play when I was with the band{Blood,Sweat and Tears} and I still love doing it. It's also a great side-closer, mostly because of the simpatico horn section performance at the very end-Nice one, guys !! "
Can't i cry a little bit?
There's nobody to notice it
Can't i cry if i want to?
No-one cares
Why can't i pretend
That you'll love me again?
All i had has been taken from me
Now i cry tears that never become me
Just one smile means forgiving
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon
How i wish i could say
All the things i want to say
If some way, you could see what's in my heart
Oh, baby
I don't ask for much
A look, a smile, a touch
Try to forget
Lord knows, i'm trying
It's so hard to forget
When your whole world you know is dying
Just one smile means forgiving
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon
Just one smile please forgiving
Just one kiss, hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon
Just one smile
