Come to me my melancholy baby,

Cuddle up and don't be blue . . .

All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe

You know dear that I'm in love with you!

Every cloud must have a silver lining

Wait until the sun shines through

Smile my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear

Or else I shall be melancholy too!

Every cloud must have a silver lining

Wait until the sun shines through

Smile my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear

Or else I shall be melancholy too!

Music by Ernie Burnett

with lyrics by George A. Norton

and Maybelle E. Watson , 1912
