The Clouds Will Soon Roll By
Ambrose & His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Instrumental...
Somewhere the sun is shining.
So, honey, don't you cry.
We'll find a silver lining.
The clouds will soon roll by.
I hear a robin singing.
Upon a treetop high.
To you and me he's singing.
The clouds will soon roll by.
Each little tear and sorrow only bring you closer to me.
Just wait until tomorrow.
What happy day that will be.
Down Lovers Lane together.
We'll wonder, you and I.




Goodbye to stormy weather.
The clouds wil soon roll by.

I've always loved this song and many more after buying the soundtrack to Pennies from Heaven.
Brings to mind a society a million miles from now - decency, good manners and people well dressed smoking Players non-filter cigarettes and good conversation.

What a super song. We could hear every word and no wonder Oliver stopped crying as music is very soothing.

@davebarrett1949

Wonderful! My copy was broken when moving house. I have ordered a CD with it but will miss playing it on 78. I love Elsie's voice on this.

This is presumably the version used in the film "Pennies From Heavan" (1981; Steve Martin, Bernadette Peters).
