Duke Ellington & His Orchestra - Prelude to a Kiss lyrics

If you hear a song in blue Like a flower crying for dew That was my heart serenading you MY PRELUDE TO A KISS If you hear a song that grows From my tender sentimental woes That was my heart trying to compose A PRELUDE TO A KISS Though it's just a simple melody With nothing fancy, nothing much You could turn it to a symphony - A Schubert tune with a Gershwin touch Oh! How my love song gently cries For the tenderness within your eyes My love is a prelude that never dies A PRELUDE TO A KISS If you hear a song in blue Like a flower crying for dew That was my heart serenading you MY PRELUDE TO A KISS If you hear a song that grows From my tender sentimental woes That was my heart trying to compose A PRELUDE TO A KISS Though it's just a simple melody With nothing fancy, nothing much You could turn it to a symphony - A Schubert tune with a Gershwin touch Oh! How my love song gently cries For the tenderness within your eyes My love is a prelude that never dies A PRELUDE TO A KISS
