In the blue of evening when you appear close to me, dear one,

There in the dusk we'll share a dream reverie

In the blue of evening while crickets call and stars are falling

There 'neath the midnight sky you'll come to me

 

In the shadows of the night we'll stand

I'll touch your hand and then

Softly as your lovely eyes entreat

Our lips will meet again

 

In the blue of evening, night winds above whisp'rin' "I love you"

There will we find romance in the blue of evening

 

<instrumental>

 

In the blue of evening, night winds above whisp'ring "I love you"

There will we find romance in the blue of evening
