Bluebird Of Happiness

The beggar man and the mighty king

Are only different in name

For they are treated just the same by fate

Today a smile and tomorrow a tear

We're never sure what's in store

So learn your lesson before it is too late

So be like I

Hold your head up high

'Til you find the bluebird

You will find greater peace of mind

Knowing there's a bluebird of happiness

And when he sings to you

Though you're deep in blue

You will see a ray of light

Creep through

And so remember this

Life is no abyss

Somewhere there's a bluebird

Of happiness

The poet with his pen

The peasant with his plow

It makes no difference who you are

It's all the same somehow

The king upon his throne

The jester at his feet

The artist, the actress, the man

It's a life of smiles and a life of tears

It's a life of hopes and a life of fears

A blinding torrent of rain

And a brilliant burst of sun

A biting, tearing pain

And bubbling, sparkling fun

And no matter what you have

Don't envy those you meet

It's all the same, it's in the game

The bitter and the sweet

And if things don't look so cheerful

Just show a little fight

For every bit of darkness

There's a little bit of light

Of hatred, there's a little bit of love

For every cloudy morning

There's a midnight moon above

So don't you forget

You must search 'til you find the bluebird

You will find peace and contentment forever

If you will

Be like I

Hold your head up high

'Til you see a ray of light

Come cheer

And so remember this

Life is no abyss

Somewhere there's a bluebird

Of happiness
