Lyrics
- Life is not a bed of roses
Good luck seldom comes our way
All too soon the summer closes
Skies are grey, still it’s best to say
Refrain
Look for the Blue Bird
He’s waiting for you
Look for the Blue Bird
And start life anew
Maybe in Springtime
Maybe in the Fall
Sooner or later
You’re bound to hear him call
He sends a message
Your troubles are through
Never stop loving
That’s all you must do
Just build your love nest
Cares will all take wings
You’ll find the sunshine
Where the Blue Bird sings
- Ev’ry lane must have a turning
Ev’ry night must turn to day
That’s the lesson to be learning
Wait awhile and you’ll learn to smile
