If you hear a song in blue

like a flower crying for dew

That was my heart serenading you

MY PRELUDE TO A KISS

If you hear a song that grows

from my tender sentimental woes

That was my heart trying to compose

A PRELUDE TO A KISS

Though it's just a simple melody

with nothing fancy, nothing much

You could turn it to a symphony -

a Schubert tune with a Gershwin touch

Oh! How my love song gently cries

for the tenderness within your eyes

My love is a prelude that never dies

A PRELUDE TO A KISS.
