I had been waiting
the whole day through.
Fortune had left me lonely.
'Twas worth the waiting
if dreams come true—
one happy moment only.
I keep on hoping.
Why should I fear?
Maybe good luck is waiting near.
In a year, in a day,
when the [hallows?] go their way,
there will be a little happiness for me.
In a year, in a day,
I am sure that, come what may,
I shall wear a smile for all the world to see.
It may rain, near or far,
'till I find my lucky star,
or may come very soon
with the twilight and the moon.
So I smile and I pray
and true love will come my way,
in a year, in a love, in a day.

So I smile and I pray
and true love will come my way,
in a year, in a love, in a day.
