Duke Ellington - Prelude To A Kiss (White House) - Live Lyrics

Lyrics Prelude To A Kiss (White House) - Live - Duke Ellington



If you hear a song in blue
Like a flower crying for dew
That was my heart serenading you
MY PRELUDE TO A KISS
If you hear a song that grows
From my tender sentimental woes
That was my heart trying to compose
A PRELUDE TO A KISS
Though it's just a simple melody
With nothing fancy, nothing much
You could turn it to a symphony -
A Schubert tune with a Gershwin touch
Oh! How my love song gently cries
For the tenderness within your eyes
My love is a prelude that never dies
A PRELUDE TO A KISS.
If you hear a song in blue
Like a flower crying for dew
That was my heart serenading you
MY PRELUDE TO A KISS
If you hear a song that grows
From my tender sentimental woes
That was my heart trying to compose
A PRELUDE TO A KISS
Though it's just a simple melody
With nothing fancy, nothing much
You could turn it to a symphony -
A Schubert tune with a Gershwin touch
Oh! How my love song gently cries
For the tenderness within your eyes
My love is a prelude that never dies
A PRELUDE TO A KISS.
