Lyrics
- I’m so happy! Life doesn’t seem the same
You can’t see it, But inside I’m all a-flame
I haven’t felt this way since once I sunk a ten foot putt
Which I needed to win the game
Chorus
Oh! the sun shines brighter than it used to
And the world becomes worthwhile
Little dicky-birdies sing the wedding march
And Nature seems to smile
The breeze in the trees brings a scent of orange blossom
And the skies turn soft and blue
When there’s no one ’round except the man you love
And the man you love loves you
2. I’m so happy! I’ve simply got to sing
I’ll break records, When I run to buy the ring
I don’t know who the fellow was who first invented life
But he started a darned good thing
Sung here by Vancha March:
