BLUE SNOWFLAKES
(Billy Hayes)

Ernest Tubb & The Andrew Sisters – 1952


Blue Snowflakes cover the ground
When a blue lover has no sweetheart around
And those Blue Snowflakes fall from the skies
Like the blue, blue teardrops from my eyes

Sweethearts shopping everywhere, dashing through the snow
The gifts all wrapped in bright red ribbons everywhere I go
Decorating trees of green for the ones they love
But for me I only see Blue Snowflakes from above

Blue Snowflakes cover the ground
When a blue lover has no sweetheart around
And those Blue Snowflakes falls from the skies
Like the blue, blue teardrops from his eyes

Instrumentals

I remember her first kiss on an old sleigh ride
The white snowflakes looked just like stardust with her by my side
It was then she promised me someday we would wed
Now those wedding bells will ring for some else instead

Blue Snowflakes follow me round
Only blue memories in my heart can be found
And those Blue Snowflakes fall from the skies
Like the blue, blue teardrops from my eyes
Like the blue, blue teardrops from my eyes
