"'Just to See You Smile'" is a song written by Mark Nesler and Tony Martin, and performed by American country music artist Tim McGraw. It was released in August 1997 as the third single from McGraw's fourth studio album 'Everywhere'. Having spent 42 weeks on the 'Billboard' chart, it set what was then a record for being the longest-running single on the 'Billboard' country chart since the inception of Nielsen SoundScan in 1990. It was also the longest chart run for any country single in the 1990s. The song was also released by Mitchell Tenpenny in 2018.
Critical reception
Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe gave the song an A grade, saying McGraw "plays his cards so close to his chest that upon first listen, you may only pick up on his unconditional love and selflessness toward the girl whos been stringing him along for all these years."[http://www.countryuniverse.net/2012/01/02/retro-single-review-tim-mcgraw-just-to-see-you-smile/ CountryUniverse.net] Song review
