3 AM
Nowhere else to go It's 3 AM and I miss you so Couples are departing soon they'll all be gone Now another day is starting Still I linger on withBlue Champagne Purple shadows and blue champagne With the echoes that still remain I keep a blue rendezvousBubbles rise Like a fountain before my eyes And they suddenly crystallize To form a vision of youAll the plans we started, all the songs we sang Each little dream we knew Seems to overtake me Like a boomerang Blue is the sparkle, gone is the tangIt's your refrain, Keeps returning, as I remain With all the memories and blue champagne To toast the dream that was you I'm bluer than blue champagne |
