Look for the Silver Lining
Always Remember
No matter what situations life throws at you...
No matter how long and treacherous your journey may seem..
Remember, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
You're laughing aren't you?
That's good.......my job here is done!
Have a great day!J
"Look for the Silver Lining"
Words by Buddy DeSylva, music by Jerome Kern, 1920
Performed by Judy Garland in the film Till the Clouds Roll By, 1946
Introduced by Marilyn Miller and Irving Fisher in the musical, Sally, 1920
and performed by Marilyn Miller in the film Sally, 1930:
Boy:
Please don't be offended if I preach to you a while,
Tears are out of place in eyes that were meant to smile.
There's a way to make your very biggest troubles small,
Here's the happy secret of it all.
Refrain:
Look for the silver lining
When e'er a cloud appears in the blue.
Remember somewhere, the sun is shining
And so the right thing to do is make it shine for you.
A heart, full of joy and gladness
Will always banish sadness and strife
So always look for the silver lining
And try to find the sunny side of life.
Girl:
As I wash my dishes, I'll be following your plan,
Till I see the brightness in ev'ry pot and pan.
I am sure your point of view will ease the daily grind,
So I'll keep repeating in my mind.
Refrain:
Look for the silver lining
When e'er a cloud appears in the blue.
Remember somewhere, the sun is shining
And so the right thing to do is make it shine for you.
A heart, full of joy and gladness
Will always banish sadness and strife
So always look for the silver lining
And try to find the sunny side of life.
