- Verse:
- I wandered alone one night,
- 'Till I heard an orchestra
play.
- I met you where lights were
bright,
- And people were carefree
and gay.
- You were the beautiful lady
in blue,
I was in heaven just waltzing with you,
- You thrilled me with strange
delight,
- Then softly you stole away.
-
- Chorus:
- I dream of that night with
you,
- Lady, when first we met,
- We danced in a world of
blue,
- How can my heart forget.
- Blue were the skies and
blue were your eyes,
- Just like the blue skirt
you wore.
- Come back, blue lady, come
back,
- Don't be blue any more.
