Always On The Bright Side, ©1982 by Gordon Lightfoot You are like a wish come true I'm counting on you Through two shipwrecked eyes I've come to see Everything I had to give has been given to you Baby that's the way it all should be Always on the bright side Keeps it kind of light That girl gets friendlier each day Love alone will keep me breathing all through the night In that quiet place where dreams abide You and I together are a bit of all right Feeling good is how we wish to be Always on the bright side Always out of sight Nesting like two eagles in the trees Always on the bright side Keeps it kind of light That girl gets friendlier each day Always on the bright side Always out of sight Nesting like two eagles in the trees
