about

"Great Day" (Youmans/Rose/Eliscu) 1929 / "Music in the Air" (Kern/Hammerstein) 1932

lyrics

Without a song the day would never end.
Without a song the road would never bend.
When things go wrong, a man ain't got a friend;
Without a song.

That field of corn would never see a plow.
That field of corn would be deserted now.
A man is born, but he's no good nohow;
Without a song.

I've got my trouble and woe
and sure as I know the Jordan will roll.
But I'll get along as long as a song is strung in my soul.

I hear music when I look at you.
A beautiful theme of every dream I ever knew.
Down deep in my heart I hear it play.
I feel it start then melt away.

I hear music when I touch your hand.
A beautiful melody from some enchanted land.
Down deep in my heart I hear it say,
"Is this the day?"

I alone have heard that lovely strain.
I alone have heard that glad refrain.
Must it be forever inside of me?
Why can't I let it go?
Why can't I let you know?

Why can't I let you know the song my heart would sing?
A beautiful rhapsody of love and youth and spring!
The music is sweet, the words are true, the song is you!
