Blue Orchids Lyrics

Sarah Vaughan Blue Orchids

I dreaming of two blue orchids
Two beautiful blue orchids
One night while in my lonely room

I dreamed of two blue orchids
So full of love and light
That I wanted to possess each tended 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 locked at me
It was plain to see
Blue orchids only bloom in your eyes!
