I'll tell you something, this head just won't go away

But when you smile, my day gets brighter
Highlighting the positive impact of the person's smile on the speaker's mood.
And in a while, my head's gone away
Indicating that the positive influence lasts for a significant duration, lifting the mental burden.
Out of my mind, I can't get you

Out of my mind, I can't get you

Out of my mind, out of my mind
