SEATTLE
(Ernie Sheldon / Jack Keller / Hugo Montenegro)


Connie Smith - 1968





The bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle
And the hills the greenest green in Seattle
Like a beautiful child growing up free and wild
Full of hopes and full of fears, full of laughter, full of tears
Full of dreams to last the years in Seattle, in Seattle

When it's time to leave your home and your loved ones
It's the hardest thing a girl can do
And you pray that you will find someone warm and sweet and kind
'Cause you're not sure what's waiting for you

The bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle
And the hills the greenest green in Seattle
Like a beautiful child growing up free and wild
Full of hopes and full of fears, full of laughter, full of tears
Full of dreams to last the years in Seattle, in Seattle

When you find your own true love you will know it
By his smile, by the look in his eyes
Scent of pinetrees in the air, never knew it could be so fair
Makes you so proud that you could cry

The bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle
And the hills the greenest green in Seattle
Like a beautiful child growing up free and wild
Full of hopes and full of fears, full of laughter, full of tears
Full of dreams to last the years in Seattle, in Seattle
In Seattle, in Seattle, oh, in Seattle, in Seattle.......FADE
