"Just to See You Smile" is a song made famous by American country music artist Tim McGraw. Released in 1997, the song was McGraw's third single from the album Everywhere.

A track that first charted in August 1997, "Just to See You Smile" eventually broke in popularity in mid-November. Eventually, the song became McGraw's third consecutive No. 1 single from Everywhere, spending six weeks atop the Billboard magazine Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in January and February 1998.

Having spent 42 weeks on the Billboard chart, "Just to See You Smile" also set what was then a record for being the longest-running single on the Billboard country charts since the inception of Nielsen SoundScan in 1990.[1] (This record has since been broken by two songs: "Baby Girl" by Sugarland and "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood, both of which spent 46 weeks on the country charts.)
