Where the blue of the night meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me
And the gold of her hair crowns the blue of her eyes
Like a halo tenderly

If only I could see her
Oh, how happy I would be
Where the blue of the night meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me

WHERE THE BLUE OF THE NIGHT (Bing Crosby)


as recorded by Bing Crosby 
with John Scott Trotter & his Orchestra  
July 17th 1945 
Los Angeles


Why must I live in dreams
Of the days I used to know?
Why can't I find
Real peace of mind,
And go back to the long ago?

Where the blue of the night
Meets the gold of the day,
Someone waits for me.
And the gold of her hair
Crowns the blue of her eyes
Like a halo, tenderly.

If only I could see her,
Oh how happy I would be.
Where the blue of the night
Meets the gold of the day,
Someone waits for me.

(whistling)

If only I could see her,
Oh how happy I would be.
Where the blue of the night
Meets the gold of the day,
Someone waits for me.
