Harlem Nocturne (Nocturne for the Blues)

Harlem Nocturne (Nocturne For The Blues) - Mel Tormé

A nocturne for the blues played

On a broken heart string

It's wailing out the news my baby is gone from me

Dark shadows in the rain

A telephone that won't ring

Just memories remain of lovers that used to be

I miss the laughs and the fun my spot in the sun

When I was the one one and only

The music and lights those wonderful nights

The morning is the time we'd kiss

The laughs and the fun my days in the sun

They're over and done and I'm lonely;

Don't ask me to hide the heartbreak inside

The gleaming spark is gone the light went dark

This nocturn for the blues took all

And left me nothing

Nothing but the blues

Till baby comes back to me

This nocturn for the blues

Took all and left me nothing

Nothing but the blues

Till baby comes back to me

Till my baby comes back to me

Till my only baby comes back to me

All see a Harlem Nocturne
