Words by Sam M Lewis
Music by J Fred Coots
Ev'ryone loves a love story
Told of a maid and a man
But listen to my love story,
It ended before it began.
REFRAIN
A beautiful lady in blue,
We met just like two shadows do,
Not one word was said, she kiss'd me and fled
And our little romance was thro'.
A beautiful lady in blue,
She thought I was someone she knew,
Her lips so divine Were not meant for mine,
The night seem'd to laugh at us too.
How did I know she was lovely?
There wan't a moonbeam a-glow.
How would I know there's a haven
Unles my heart told me so?
A beautiful lady in blue,
And strange as it may sound to you,
A lifetime was spent in one little moment
With a beautiful lady in blue. |
