THE BREEZE AND I
Music: Ernesto Lecuona

The Breeze and I are saying with a sigh
That you no longer care.
The Breeze and I are whispering goodbye
To dreams we used to share.
Ours was a love song that seemed constant as the moon,
Ending in a strange, mournful tune;
And all about me, they know
You have departed without me and we wonder why,
The Breeze and I.
