Happy Days Are Here Again
Embracing Joy: Barbra Streisand's Anthem of Triumph Over Adversity
Lyrics
So long sad times
Expressing farewell to sad times
Go long bad times
Wishing farewell to difficult times
We are rid of you at last
Celebrating the end of those challenging times
Howdy gay times
Welcoming joyful times
Cloudy gray times
Referring to times characterized by uncertainty and dullness
You are now a thing of the past
Confirming that those times are now in the past
Happy days are here again
Expressing the arrival of happy moments
The skies above are clear again
Indicating a clear and positive atmosphere
So let's sing a song of cheer again
Suggesting a collective celebration through song
Happy days are here again
Reiterating the arrival of joyful times
Altogether, shout it now
Encouraging a group declaration of happiness
There's no one who can doubt it now
Asserting the certainty of happiness
So let's tell the world about it now
Advocating sharing the news of happiness with the world
Happy days are here again
Reaffirming the presence of happy days
Your cares and troubles are gone
Stating that worries and problems have vanished
There'll be no more from now on
Emphasizing the absence of troubles from this point onward
From now on
Repeating the assurance of a positive future
Happy days are here again
Reiterating the theme of the arrival of happy days
The skies above are clear again
Confirming the clear and positive skies once more
So, let's sing a song of cheer again
Encouraging further joyful singing
Happy times
Expressing happiness in the present moment
Happy nights
Extending happiness into the nighttime
Happy days
Affirming the continuous presence of happy days
Are here again
Repeating the declaration that happy days have returned
