Blue Gardenia

Blue Gardenia - Dinah Washington

Blue gardenia

Now I'm alone with you

And I am also blue

He has tossed us aside

And like you gardenia

Once I was near his heart

After the tear drops start

Where are tear drops to hide

I lived for an hour

What more can I tell

Love bloomed like a flower

Then the petals fell

Blue gardenia

Thrown to a passing breeze

But pressed

Yes there pressed in my book of memories

I lived for an hour

What more can I tell

Love bloomed like a flower

And then the petals fell

Blue gardenia

Thrown to a passing breeze

But pressed

In my book of memories

But pressed

In my book of memories
