Glenn Miller - Blue Orchids lyrics

rate me

(Hoagy Carmichael)

(vocals: Ray Eberle)

I dreamed of two blue orchids

Two beautiful blue orchids

One night while in my lonely room

I dreamed of two blue orchids

So rare and full of light

That I wanted to possess each tender bloom

Then my dream took wings

And through a thousand springs

Blue orchids seemed in a world apart

But when I met you

Something pale and blue

Came stealing from the meadows of my heart

I saw my two blue orchids

My beautiful blue orchids

Last night, and what a sweet surprise,

When you looked at me

It was plain to see

Blue orchids only bloom in your eyes
