It's been often said that rich he'll be
Who dreams of something blue
Richer I shall always be
For that's how I found you
I dreamed of two blue orchids
Two beautiful blue orchids
One night while in my lonely room
I dreamed of two blue orchids
So full of love and light
That I wanted to possess each tender bloom
Then my dream took wings and through a thousand springs
Blue orchids seemed in a world apart
But when I met you something pale and blue
Came stealing from the meadows of my heart
I saw my two blue orchids
My beautiful blue orchids, last night and what a sweet surprise
When you looked at me
It was plain to see
Blue orchids only bloom in your eyes
Mahalo to Cindy P. for the lyrics to this song.
