.... blue horizon
Waits a beautiful day
Goodbye to things that bore me
Joy is waiting for me
I see a new horizon
My life has only begun
Beyond the blue da-dum, dee-dum
[full voice]
Beyond the blue horizon
Waits a beautiful day
Goodbye to things that bore me
Joy is waiting for me
I see a new horizon
My life has only begun
Beyond the blue horizon
Lies a rising sun
Beyond the blue horizon
Waits the beautiful day
Goodbye to things that bore me
Joy is waiting for me
I see a new horizon
My life has only begun
Beyond the blue horizon
Lies a rising sun
Beyond the blue horizon
Lies a rising sun
[faint, almost in background]
Beyond the blue horizon
Waits a beautiful day
Da-da, bum, da, bum....
Joy is waiting for me
I see a new horizon
******
as rec by Jeanette MacDonald
Blow whistle, blow away,
Blow away the past!
Go engine, anywhere,
I don't care how fast!
On, on from darkness into dawn,
>From rain into the rainbow, fly with me.
Gone, gone all my grief and woe,
What matter where I go if I am free?
Beyond the blue horizon
Waits a beautiful day,
Goodbye to things that bore me,
Joy is waiting for me!
I see a new horizon,
My life has only begun,
Beyond the blue horizon
Lies a rising sun.
Beyond the blue horizon
Waits a beautiful day,
Goodbye to things that bore me,
Joy is waiting for me!
I see a new horizon,
My life has only begun,
Beyond the blue horizon
Lies a rising sun.
