"What a Diff'rence a Day Made" is a popular song originally written in Spanish by María Grever, a Mexican songwriter, in 1934.

What a diff'rence a day made

Twenty-four little hours

Brought the sun and the flowers

Where there used to be rain

My yesterday was blue, dear

Today I'm part of you, dear

My lonely nights are through, dear

(Since you said you were mine)

What a diff'rence a day makes

There's a rainbow before me

Skies above can't be stormy

Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss

(It's heaven when you find romance on your menu)

What a diff'rence a day made

And the difference is you

(What a diff'rence a day makes)

(There's a rainbow before me)

(Skies above can't be stormy)

Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss

(It's heaven when you find romance on your menu)

What a diff'rence a day made

And the difference is you
