April Showers

Look for the good things in life, 1921.
May flowers represent a brighter future.

Lyrics

  1. 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’s the point that you should never miss

Refrain
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 bluebird
And listening for his song
Whenever April showers come along

  1. I have learned to smile when skies are gloomy
    Smile although my heart’s about to break
    When I know that trouble’s coming to me
    Here’s the happy attitude I take
