Things Are Looking Up Songtext
von Fred Astaire

If I should suddenly start to sing
Or stand on my head or anything
Don′t think that I've lost my senses
It′s just that my happiness finally commences
The long, long ages of dull despair
Are turning into thin air
And it seems that suddenly
I've become the happiest man alive
Things are looking up
I've been looking the landscape over
And it′s covered with four leaf clovers
Oh, things are looking up
Since love looked up at me


Bitter was my cup
But no more will 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?
Every one 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 as happy as a pup
Since love looked up at me
