Don't be sad, be glad
Be happy for me
I'll be home come sundown
In the land where I'm free
Though you think you're alone
By your side I will be
Don't be sad
Be happy for me
And the mountains are high
In the land where I'm free
And they reach for the sky
Like my dreams, like my dreams
And the sound that I love
Is the song of the sea
Don't be sad
Be happy for me
Don't be sad, be glad
Be happy for me
I'll be home come sundown
In the land where I'm free
Though you think you're alone
By your side I will be
Don't be sad
Be happy for me
Though this parting is hard
Shed no tears, shed no tears,
Let the song of the lark
Bring a calm to your fears
As with after a storm
How serene is the sea
Don't be sad -
Be happy for me
Don't be sad
Be happy for me
Now you give me your heart
And we'll walk hand in hand
Over low and high roads,
On the shore's yellow sands
Though you think you're alone
By your side I will be
Don't be sad
Be happy for me
Don't be sad, be happy for me
Don't be sad, be happy, happy for me
