about
With this track, I wanted to meld contemporary sounds with throwback/Motown sounds incorporating my musical influences. I hope the song brings you heart smiles. #HeartSmiles

lyrics
VERSE 1
I could think of a million reasons why
This wouldn't make any sense to you and I
But you hold on to my hand with your level-headed heart
Barely holding onto time as it moves us apart
CHORUS
You give me heart smiles with every moment
You give me heart smiles every day
You give me heart smiles with every moment
Oh they take all my troubles far away
VERSE 2
You're my favorite version of a literary ellipsis.
Just a handful of dots that are trailing forever on
Never know that i'll ever wanna end this sentence
Handed down to me from up above
BRIDGE
In my mind, you're here dancing and smiling cheek to cheek
I'm romantically hopeless and I'm the happiest I could be
Holding on to every moment Every smile that you send
I'm holding on, singing this song
Till you're back in my arms again.
I could think of a million reasons why
This wouldn't make any sense to you and I
But you hold on to my hand with your level-headed heart
Barely holding onto time as it moves us apart
CHORUS
You give me heart smiles with every moment
You give me heart smiles every day
You give me heart smiles with every moment
Oh they take all my troubles far away
VERSE 2
You're my favorite version of a literary ellipsis.
Just a handful of dots that are trailing forever on
Never know that i'll ever wanna end this sentence
Handed down to me from up above
BRIDGE
In my mind, you're here dancing and smiling cheek to cheek
I'm romantically hopeless and I'm the happiest I could be
Holding on to every moment Every smile that you send
I'm holding on, singing this song
Till you're back in my arms again.

Friends and Foes
by Tim Be Toldsupported by 10 fans who also own “Heart Smiles”
Sometimes I really go for Christian rock - not only because of the heartwarming lyrics, but because it frequently involves exquisite melodies and arrangements. Tim Ouyang aka "Tim Be Told" is an undisputable master of this genre, especially when it comes to ballads. With the mind-blowing selection of songs on "Friends and Foes", he certainly found much more new friends than foes.

This unfailingly is the song I go to when I feel attacked, discouraged, defenseless, vulnerable, torn up, beaten, ashamed, miserable, emotionless, etc. Incredible track...

Love and Happiness
by Tim Be Toldsupported by 7 fans who also own “Heart Smiles”
A magical collection. Each track hits home like nothing else I've heard all year. Tim accomplishes what few (arguably more popular) artists have, trading formula for nuance. Every artistic risk pays off. The holy blend of genres Tim pulls off here may not be for everyone, but I find it the musical equivalent of what Kafka calls great art: it smashes the frozen sea inside us. This album is an immense and bighearted gift to the world. (Impossible to choose a favorite track.)
