Happy Talk - Oscar Hammerstein II

Talk about things you’d like to do

You gotta have a dream

If you don’t have a dream

How you gonna have a dream come true?

Talk about a moon floatin' in the sky

Lookin' like a lily on a lake;

Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly

Makin' all the music he can make

Happy talk

Keep talkin' happy talk

Let’s talk about a star lookin' like a toy

Peekin' through the branches of a tree;

Talk about a girl

Talk about a boy

Countin' all the ripples on the sea

Happy talk

Keep talkin' happy talk

Talk about a boy sayin' to the girl:

Golly, Baby !

I’m a lucky cuss!

Talk about a girl sayin' to the boy:

'You and me are lucky to be us!"

Happy talk

Keep talkin' happy talk

If you don’t talk happy and you never have a dream

Then you’ll never have a dream come true!
