If you hear a song in blue
Like the flower crying for the dew
That was my heart serenading you
My prelude to a kiss

If you hear a song that grows
From my gentle sentimental woes
That was my heart trying to compose
My prelude to a kiss

Though it's just a simple melody
With nothing fancy, nothing much
You could turn it to a symphony
With a Shubert tune with the Gershwin touch

Oh how my love song gently cries
For the tenderness within your eyes
My love's a prelude that never diеs
A prelude to a kiss

[Trumpet & Tenor Saxophone Solos]

Though it's just a simple mеlody
With nothing fancy, nothing much
You could turn it to a symphony
A Shubert tune with a Gershwin touch
Oh how my love song gently cries
From the tenderness within your eyes
My love's a prelude that never dies
My prelude to a kiss
