Whenever skies look gray to me
and trouble begins to brew
Whenever the winter winds become
too strong
I concentrate on you
When fortune cries "Nay,
nay" to me
And people declare "You're
through"
Whenever the blues become my
only songs
I concentrate on you
On your smile, so sweet, so
tender
When at first my kiss you do
decline
On the light in your eyes when
you surrender
And once again our arms
intertwine
And so when wise men say to me
That love's young dream never
comes true
To prove that even the wise men
can be wrong
I concentrate on you
