Chapter 5


Singing in the rain lyrics:


I'm singing in the rainJust singing in the rainWhat a glorious feelin'I'm happy againI'm laughing at cloudsSo dark up above
The sun's in my heartAnd I'm ready for loveLet the stormy clouds chaseEveryone from the placeCome on with the rainI've a smile on my faceI walk down the laneWith a happy refrainJust singin',Singin' in the rain
Dancin' in the rainDee-ah dee-ah dee-ahDee-ah dee-ah dee-ahI'm happy again!I'm singin' and dancin' in the rain!I'm dancin' and singin' in the rain...
Why am I smilingAnd why do I sing?Why does September Seem sunny as spring?Why do I get upEach morning and start?Happy and head up With joy in my heartWhy is each new taskA trifle to do?Because I am livingA life full of you.

*The lyrics in this song symbolize how gatsby feels is this chapter. Everytime Daisy is around the sun comes out and he is happy. But when Daisy is not around Gatsby gets sad and it starts to rain outside and the mood is very sad.


Quotes:

Gatsby, pale as death, with his hands plunged like weights in his coat pockets, was standing in a puddle of water glaring tragically into my eyes.



"If it wasn't for the mist we could see your home across the bay....You always have a green light that burns all night at the end of your dock."



"There must have been moments even that afternoon when Daisy tumbled short of his dreams - not through her own fault but because of the colossal vitality of his illusion. It had gone beyond her, beyond everything. He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion."



"Only wind and the trees which blew the wires and made the lights go off and on again as if the house had weakened into the darkness"
