Lyrics

Homer:

Uh, (clears throat) Marge?

I was born to make you happy.

I think you're just my style.

Everywhere I go,

Tellin' everyone I know

Baby, I love to see you smile.

Marge:

Don't wanna take a trip to China.

Don't wanna sail up the Nile.

Wouldn't wanna get too far

From where you are.

Cuz I love to see you smile.

Homer:

In the summer,

In the springtime,

Winter or fall,

The only place

I wanna be

Is where I can see you

Smile at me.

Like a sink without a faucet.

Marge:

Like a watch without a dial.

Homer and Marge:

What would I do

If I didn't have you?

I love to see you smile.

(Dr. John plays the keys)

Marge:

In the summer,

In the springtime,

Winter or fall,

The only place

I wanna be

Is where I can see you

Smile at me.

Homer:

In a world that's full of trouble,

You make it all worthwhile.

Homer and Marge:

What would I do

If I didn't have you?

Oh, I love to see you smile.

Marge:

Mmmm...

Homer and Marge:

I love to see you smile.

Marge:

I mean that sincerely, Homer.

Homer:

I know.
