Isn't This A Lovely Day
Fred Astaire & Johnny Green and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The thunder and lightning
Seem to be having their way
But as far as I'm concerned
It's a lovely day
The turn in the weather
Will keep us together
That as far as I'm concerned
It's a lovely day and everything's okay
Isn't this a lovely day to be caught in the rain?
You were going on your way
Now you've got to remain
Just as you were going
Leaving me all at sea
The clouds broke, they broke
And oh, what a break for me
Oh, I can see the sun up high
Though we're caught in a storm
I can see where you and I could be cozy and warm
Let the rain pitter-patter
'Cause it really doesn't matter
If the skies are gray
Long as I can be with you
It's a lovely day
Oh, I can see some sun up high
Though we're caught in the storm, yeah
And I can see where you and I could be cozy and warm
Now let the rain pitter-patter
Because it really doesn't matter
If the skies are gray
Just as long as I can be with you
It's a lovely day
The lyrics of Fred Astaire & Johnny Green and His Orchestra's song "Isn't This A Lovely Day" juxtapose the frightening weather outside with a sense of joy and contentment inside. While thunder and lightning seem to be having their way, the singer can honestly say that everything is okay and it's a lovely day. The turn in the weather will keep the couple together, and despite being caught in the rain, the singer sees the sun up high and imagines a cozy and warm future with the person they're with. It doesn't matter if the skies are gray as long as they can be with each other.
The song's lyrics could be seen as a reflection of the power of positive thinking and the ability to find happiness and beauty even in difficult situations. It's also a love song that celebrates the simple pleasures of being together, even in the midst of a storm. The music is upbeat and jazzy, adding to the sense of happiness and celebration.

The weather is frightening
The current weather is scary
The thunder and lightning
The thunder and lightning are occurring together
Seem to be having their way
They are dominating what is happening around me
But as far as I'm concerned
Speaking for myself
It's a lovely day
I consider this a beautiful day
The turn in the weather
The change in weather
Will keep us together
This weather will make sure we stay together
So I can honestly say
I can genuinely say
That as far as I'm concerned
As far as I am affected
It's a lovely day and everything's okay
This is still a beautiful day for me and nothing went wrong
Isn't this a lovely day to be caught in the rain?
Isn't it amazing that it's raining but despite that, it remains lovely?
You were going on your way
You were about to leave and go your separate way
Now you've got to remain
Now you have to stay because of the rain
Just as you were going
At the same time you were leaving
Leaving me all at sea
Making me feel lost and uncertain
The clouds broke, they broke
Suddenly the clouds dispersed
And oh what a break for me
This turned out to be a great opportunity for me
I can see the sun up high
I can see the sun shining bright
Though we're caught in a storm
Despite being in a storm
I can see where you and I could be cozy and warm
I can imagine us being comfortable and warm together
Let the rain pitter-patter
Let the rain fall gently
But it really doesn't matter
It's not significant
If the skies are gray
Even if things seem gloomy
Long as I can be with you
I'm just happy to be with you
It's a lovely day
This remains a beautiful day for me
