When I sing the cares of the day are far away
My heart seems as light as the song
I hear from some happy nightingale.

When I sing my world is a place that''s bright and gay
Rain turns to sunshine December to May.

(Durbin hums)

Life is divine when I sing...

(Durbin hums)

My gray days are gay days
When I tra-la-la for awhile
There's laughter in music
And each little note is a smile.

(Durbin hums)

The music is part of the joy in my heart...

(Durbin hums)

When I sing the cares of the day are far away
My heart seems as light as the song
I hear from some happy nightingale.

When I sing my world is a place that's bright and gay
Rain turns to sunshine December to May.

(Durbin hums)

Life is divine when I sing...

(Durbin hums to end)
