A brooding, almost haunting, opening gives way to a Trance style rhythm that uplifts the earlier mood. A song of hope.

Story behind the song
The song is about a man and woman who have known each other for some time without ever making a connection. He lacks courage to talk to her and she lacks the courage to leave her boyfriend who hits her. Her sadness forces his hand and he does the only thing he can think of....to make her smile and give her hope. A real man.
Lyrics
She stands alone at the station
Single tear in the corner of her eye
I’d like to dry that tear forever
Show me where I can apply
But like enough I’m busy today
Got no time at all to talk to you
My fear of rejection keeps me well at bay
And I know I would be good for you
So here’s the choice, my train has been delayed
Decide to wave, smile and say hello
She recognises me and tries to hide the bruise
Why I say it doesn’t matter, I do not know
From this faux-pas I offer her my hand
Was there a way to make her smile
She said not, but baby very soon
So I leave her with a smile...to take away
Do you see what you want?
Is it in here?
Do you want what you see?
Our greatest fear?
Is this approach working?
My thoughts are misfiled
My hands they are sweating
As I reach for your, for your smile.
