by Silvers and de Sylva – Key of A
Life is not a highway strewn with flowers,
Still it holds a goodly share of bliss
When the sun gives way to April showers
Here is the point you should never miss
Though April showers may come your way
They bring the flowers that bloom in May
So if it’s raining have no regrets,
because it isn’t raining rain you know, it’s raining violets
And where you see clouds upon the hills
You soon will see crowds of daffodils
So keep on looking for a blue bird,
and list’ning for his song whenever April showers come along
And where you see clouds upon the hills
You soon will see crowds of daffodils
So keep on looking for a blue bird
and list’ning for his song whenever April showers come along
120. APRIL SHOWERS 1921 |
THOUGH APRIL SHOWERS
MAY COME YOUR WAY,
THEY BRING THE FLOWERS
THAT BLOOM IN MAY.
SO IF IT’S RAINING, HAVE NO REGRETS,
BECAUSE IT ISN’T RAINING RAIN YOU KNOW,
IT’S RAINING VIOLETS.
AND WHEN YOU SEE CLOUDS
UPON THE HILL,
YOU SOON WILL SEE CROWDS
OF DAFFODILS.
SO KEEP ON LOOKING FOR A BLUEBIRD,
AND LISTENING FOR HIS SONG,
WHENEVER APRIL SHOWERS COME ALONG.
