The Ever Blue Sky
A brush of lips
To you
_(To you)_
Roses wrapped
In blue
_(In blue)_
You’re waiting
Beside me
_(Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo)_
I’m smiling
Beside you
_(Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo)_
And the world continues
To spin
_(The grass stained with dew)_
You love
Me
_(Love me, Love me, Love me)_
And I love
You
_(Love you, Love you, Love you)_
And we’re flying
High
_(In the ever blue—)_
Sky~
For one can tell
_(For one can tell)_
When love is here
_(When love is here)_
And with you by my side
_(With you by my side)_
I feel no fear
_(No fear, no fear)_
We dance and
We fly
_(Ooo, ooo, ooo)_
It the ever blue sky~
We feel alive
_(With our love, in the air so blue~)_
So blue
_(So blue)_
With you
_(With you)_
With roses
_(Roses)_
And dew
_(And dew)_
I feel
_(Oh yes)_
Your love
_(Ooo, ooo, ooo)_
In the ever
Blue
Sky~

_(Sing it like an old 20th century song. The ones they sang in those black and white movies with those women and men in love. But it’s just one woman and her back up singers for this one)_
