UNDER A BLANKET OF BLUE
(Livingston/N/S)
Jane Froman - 1955
Under a blanket of blue, just you and I beneath the stars
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance, the night is ours
Under a blanket of blue, let me be thrilled by all your charms
Darling, I know my heart will dance within your arms
^A summer night’s magic enthralling me so
The night would be tragic if you weren’t here to share it, my dear
Covered with heaven above, let’s dream a dream of love for two
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance
Under a blanket of blue

UNDER A BLANKET OF BLUE (Connee Boswell)
Jerry Livingston (m) Marty simes (l) Al J Neiburgh (l) 1933
as recorded by Connee Boswell with orchestra directed by Victor Young June 10th 1933 New York
Starlight shining from the skies,
The starlight shining in your eyes,
Oh sweetheart, what a night for you and me!
Enfold me, press your lips to mine
And hold me, it would be divine,
Oh sweetheart, make this night a memory.
Under a blanket of blue,
Just you and I beneath the stars,
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance,
The night is ours.
Under a blanket of blue,
Let me be thrilled by all your charms.
Darlin', I know my heart will dance
Within your arms
A summer night's magic,
Enthralling me so,
The night would be tragic
If you weren't here
To share it, my dear.
Covered with heaven above,
Let's dream a dream of love for two,
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance,
Under a blanket of blue.
(humming)
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance,
The night is ours.
Covered with heaven above, mmm-mm,
Let's dream a dream of love for two,
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance,
Under a blanket of blue.
