duke ellington - lady in blue lyrics
there is a gay lady in blue
haunting my dreams all the night thru.
she seems to creep into my sleep
day after day and nights without number
i see her rise right under my eyes
out of blue shadows while i’m lost in slumber:
there in the dark she is so fair
but with the dawn she’s never there
for with the bright morning’s new light
i wake and find the dream i’ve had
in mind was a lady in blue
shadows of the night.
there is a gay lady in blue
haunting my dreams all the night thru.
she seems to creep into my sleep
day after day and nights without number
i see her rise right under my eyes
out of blue shadows while i’m lost in slumber:
there in the dark she is so fair
but with the dawn she’s never there
for with the bright morning’s new light
i wake and find the dream i’ve had
in mind was a lady in blue
shadows of the night.
