Smiling All The Way Back Home Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The party's nearly over
We sat there on the sofa
Kinda close but getting closer
I know that you gotta go, but
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say goodbye
It's been so long since I
Stayed up late at night
With someone that I like
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
Smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way, smiling all the way
Smiling all the way back home
[Verse 2]
We're on the street now, we're stalling
Uber driver keeps calling
You say to me, "Just ignore him"
4:45 AM in the morning
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say goodbye
It's been so long since I
Stayed up late at night
With someone that I like
The party's nearly over
We sat there on the sofa
Kinda close but getting closer
I know that you gotta go, but
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say goodbye
It's been so long since I
Stayed up late at night
With someone that I like
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
Smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way, smiling all the way
Smiling all the way back home
[Verse 2]
We're on the street now, we're stalling
Uber driver keeps calling
You say to me, "Just ignore him"
4:45 AM in the morning
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say goodbye
It's been so long since I
Stayed up late at night
With someone that I like
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way, smiling all the way
Smiling all the way back home
[Bridge]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say goodbye
It's been so long since I
Stayed up late at night
With someone that I like
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
Just smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way, smiling all the way
Smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way, smiling all the way
Smiling all the way back home
[Bridge]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna say goodbye
It's been so long since I
Stayed up late at night
With someone that I like
[Chorus]
I'm gonna be smiling all the way back home
Just smiling all the way back home
I'm gonna be smiling all the way, smiling all the way
Smiling all the way back home

What did Tom Odell say about "Smiling All The Way Back Home"?
Genius Answer
I always knew this song was going to end the album. My own experience is that when I finally let go of a lot of this pain that I was holding, and when finally stopped trying to sedate myself, the most amazing thing happened: I met my girlfriend, and she had gone through a very similar experience at that time. It was the thing least anticipated, and it came at a moment when least expected it. The conclusion of this album is that the joy is always there. You have to open your eyes and you have to feel it in order to see it.
