George Gershwin
Things Are Looking Up
(Verse)
If I should suddenly start to sing
Or stand on my head or do anything
Don't think that I've lost my senses
It's just that my happiness finally commences
The long long years of dull despair
Are vanishing into thin air
And it suddenly seems that I've
Become the luckiest man alive
(Chorus)
Things are looking up
I've been looking the landscape over
And it's covered with four-leaf clover
Oh, things are looking up
Since love looked up at me
Bitter was my cup
But no more shall I be the mourner
For I've certainly turned the corner
Oh, things are looking up
Since love looked up at me
See the sunbeams
Everyone beams
Just because of you
Love's in session
And my depression
Is unmistakably through
Things are looking up
It's a great little world we live in
Oh, I'm happy as a pup
Since love looked up
At me
