W.S. Gilbert - How Beautifully Blue The Sky lyrics

[GIRLS] How beautifully blue the sky, The gla** is rising very high, Continue fine I hope it may, And yet it rained but yesterday. Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. [GIRLS] Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. [MABEL] Did ever maiden wake From dream of homely duty, To find her daylight break With such exceeding beauty? Did ever maiden close Her eyes on waking sadness, To dream of such exceeding gladness? [FREDERIC] Ah, yes! Ah, yes! This is exceeding gladness! [GIRLS] How beautifully blue the sky, The gla** is rising very high, Continue fine I hope it may, And yet it rained but yesterday. Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain), Yet people say, I know not why, That we shall have a warm July. [GIRLS] Tomorrow it may pour again (I hear the country wants some rain). [FREDERIC] Did ever pirate roll His soul in guilty dreaming, And wake to find that soul With peace and virtue beaming? [CHORUS] How beautifully blue the sky, The gla** is rising very high, Continue fine I hope it may, And yet it rained but yesterday. Continue fine I hope it may, And yet it rained but yesterday. [MABEL] Did ever maiden wake, From dream of homely duty To find her daylight break With such exceeding beauty! Ah, yes! Ah, yes, ah, yes! [FREDERIC] Did ever pirate loathed, Forsake his hideous mission To find himself betrothed To lady of position! Ah, yes! Ah, yes, ah, yes!
