[edit] Lyrics
Don't it make you smile?
Don't it make you smile?
When the sun don't shine? (Shine at all)
Don't it make you smile?
Don't it make you smile?
Don't it make me smile?
When the sun don't shine, it don't shine at all
Don't it make me smile?
I miss you already... I miss you always
I miss you already... I miss you all day
This is how I feel...
I miss you already... I miss you always
Three crooked hearts and swirls all around... I miss you all day

[edit] Trivia & Notes
- Although Eddie Vedder is credited with writing the song's lyrics, most of the lyrics were actually written by Dennis Flemion of The Frogs. Before a performance of the song at Pearl Jam 's June 30, 2006 concert in Milwaukee, Vedder discussed the song. He stated:
"There's a band that hails from Milwaukee - they're an important band to myself, other guys in this group, guys in Queens of the Stone Age, Kurt (Cobain), Nirvana - everybody was really touched and moved by this little band. They were called The Frogs. I've got all their records, all 692 I believe. And they opened for us years ago and one night, after we had finished our little tour, I opened my notebook and there was a little note from one of the Frogs and it was beautifully written and the band was playing a song in the room that day in practice and I just started singing the note. These words are written by Dennis from the Frogs - he's here tonight. Dennis, this is for you, this song's called "Smile."
