The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra
Written by: Thomas Montgomery Adair and Alfonso D'Artega

#1 week of August 21, 1943 through week of September 4, 1943

In the blue of evening
When you appear close to me, dear one,
There in that dusk we'll share a dream reverie
In the blue of evening
While crickets call and stars are falling
There "?neath the midnight sky you'll come to me

In the shadows of the night we'll stand
I'll touch your heart and then
Softly as your lovely eyes entreat
Our lips will meet again

In the blue of evening
Night winds above whisper "I love you"
Then we will find romance
In the blue of evening
