The train was running late, I gave a big sigh
then I saw this pretty thing out the corner of my eye
I sat down beside her trying to act cool 
whistling like a budgie and feeling like a fool

I wonder if you she likes me,  what's in her mind
I wonder if she's sexy, I wonder is she's kind
come on little lady won't you give me a sign
then we can get together and spend some time

CHORUS
Give me a smile, if you want me to talk
just one little smile then we can go for a walk
we'll get to know to know each other and then make a date
please give me a smile girl before it's too late

shall I offer her a mint, shall I compliment her clothes
shall I tell her there's a bogie on the end of her nose
why is it so hard for me to say a damn thing
when I know it wouldn't kill me and what joy it could bring

my train pulls in and I step right up
I closed the door behind me and I turned to look back
and when it pulled away and there was no more hope
she gave the kind of smile that says, I wish you'd have spoke

I'll remember that smile till the end of my days
when I think of what I missed cause of my cowardly ways
