VERSE 01: When the whole world seems so drear,/ And above dark clouds appear,/ And your heart seems filled with fear,/ Don't feel sad and blue;/ Think how nice it soon will be,/ When the sun shines cheerfully,/ Try it and I know you'll see/ What I say is true!
CHORUS: April showers bring May flowers,/ And sweet bowers,/ where roses twine;/ Now I know too,/ I can show you,/ That's it's so too all the time,/ If the sunshine call at one time/ All the fun-time would soon be through;/ April showers bring May flowers,/ So just wait 'till love comes to you.
VERSE 02: Happiness was meant for you,/ Seek it and you'll find it too,/ Then your life will start anew,/ Wonderful 'twill be;/ Sorrow was not meant to stay,/ Just to come and go away/ Tho' it finds us all some day,/ Still you'll surely see:
