Berlin Irving
Louisiana Purchase (1940)
It's A Lovely Day Tomorrow
The front page of your paper is bound to make you sad
Especially if you're the worrying sort
So turn the front page over where the news is not so bad
There's consolation in the weather report
It's a lovely day tomorrow
Tomorrow is a lovely day
Come and feast your tear dimmed eyes
On tomorrow's clear blue skies
If today your heart is weary
If ev'ry little thing looks gray
Just forget your troubles and learn to say
Tomorrow is a lovely day
[alternate verse from British sheet music:]
When I was young my mother would watch me on the days when it would rain
She'd see me so unhappy my nose against the dripping windowpane
And I would hear her singing this refrain
