Once a big introvert
She was used to the sound of silence
An extrovert by nature
He was used to striking a balance

But then the things changed
When they came in each other's frame
Dried leaves met the spark
To ignite a messy flame

When she wasn't used to talking
He made her open up
When he was used to nonsense chatting
She decided to interrupt

He showed her how it was
To finally be free
She showed him how it felt
To spare a moment and see

Not just in your own heart
But in the others as well
Just because a room is silent
Doesn't mean it needs a bell

He made her realize
What she had been missing
She made him realize
What he had been doing

Tears were her best mate
That's what she'd always known
He came in and opened a door
A new world he had shown

Smile was all he did
It was starting to look fake
She came in and opened a door
To the secret of his heart's lake

She lent him some tears
He lent her a smile
They started to like the change
And embraced a new style

And so, there he was
Finding himself in her cries
And so, here she was
Finding a new her in his smiles

Finding themselves in each other's style...
Finding themselves in each other's style...

"Smiles and tears are both necessary to solve the equation of life."
