If you'll only bide the time
and fortify your heart,
Fortune will decide the time
when sorrows will depart.
Let's put heads together
and be fancy free.
Make your troubles disappear
Let bliss appear
and see all the jolly times
of days to be.

Bye and bye
not now but bye and bye
somehow we'll try and buy
a little nest.
Scheme a while when lonely
Dream a while
'twill only seem a while
and love will do the rest.
Our happy days will come
though slight delays will come
the bright sun's rays will come
from out the sky.
Ev'ry cloud just flies on
Love is on the far horizon
You'll be my sweetheart
Bye and bye.

Bye and bye
not now but bye and bye
somehow we'll try and buy
a little nest.
Scheme a while when lonely
Dream a while
'twill only seem a while
and love will do the rest.
Our happy days will come
though slight delays will come
the bright sun's rays will come
from out the sky.
Ev'ry cloud just flies on
Love is on the far horizon
You'll be my sweetheart
Bye and bye.

Why should we be sorrowful
when just ahead we see
Pictures of tomorrow full
of things that ought to be?
We won't know a trouble;
we won't know a care;
ev'ry storm we weather, dear,
together, dear.
Seems fair...
while we dream of all
we'll have to share.

Bye and bye
not now but bye and bye
somehow we'll try and buy
a little nest.
Scheme a while when lonely
Dream a while
'twill only seem a while
and love will do the rest.
Our happy days will come
though slight delays will come
the bright sun's rays will come
from out the sky.
Ev'ry cloud just flies on
Love is on the far horizon
You'll be my sweetheart
Bye and bye.

Bye and bye
not now but bye and bye
somehow we'll try and buy
a little nest.
Scheme a while when lonely
Dream a while
'twill only seem a while
and love will do the rest.
Our happy days will come
though slight delays will come
the bright sun's rays will come
from out the sky.
Ev'ry cloud just flies on
Love is on the far horizon
You'll be my sweetheart
Bye and bye.
