Blue Gardenia

Blue gardenia Now I'm alone with you And I am, oh, so blue He has tossed us aside And like you, gardenia Once I was near his heart After the teardrops start Where are teardrops 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 rest in my book of memories 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 Rest in my book of memories But rest in my book of memories --- Blue Gardenia - Etta James
