Believe It or Not

Drowning my sick guinea pig sorrows in Gilmore Girls tonight, I perked right up when one of the characters requested this old fave as his official campaign song:

Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself;
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
Should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

Just like the light of new day,
It hit me from out of the blue;
Breakin' me out of the spell I was in,
Makin' all of my wishes come true.

Yep, this is one of those songs that it is impossible for me to be in a bad mood while I'm listening to it, even when, say, our family guinea pig is spending the night at the vet school to the tune of hundreds of dollars worth of tests to say why she's lost so much weight:

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me...
