If you hear a song in blue like a flower crying for the dew,

That was my heart serenading you,

My prelude to a kiss.

Bridge
Gdim G G/B Am7 D7
Though it's just a simple melody
G Em7 Am7 D7
With nothing fancy, nothing much,
Am7 G E7 Am7 D7
You could turn it to a symphony
G A A7/9- A7/9
A Shubert tune with a Gershwin touch.

Oh, how my love song gen -tly cries for the tenderness within your eyes;
E4/7 A9 A7/9 D D7M B7 Em7
My love is a prelude that never dies,
A7 A7/13- A7 D
A prelude to a kiss.
