I have been just loving the "new" songs on Songbook, and I especially love Bright Side. But I am confused about one thing, and wonder if anyone out there has any ideas. The song is mainly directed to "you": "You are like a wish come true, I'm counting on you", "You and me together are a bit of all right", etc. But the refrain goes, "Always on the bright side ...that girl gets friendlier each day." Who? Is he suddenly talking to someone else? To himself? I realize you did not write the song, but suggestions as to what Gordon means are appreciated.
