I wrote a song called Smile TO the clouds, months ago. And i was wondering if it should have been AT…. . I could have been both by the way. Very good explanation of both uses.

In reply to brahim.

“Smile for” would generally imply an intention/purpose, i.e. to smile to please someone or to satisfy something. “Smile for your friends” or “smile for the camera”, for example.
