blue champagne

Singer:manhattan transfer, the

3 am

nowhere else to go

it's 3 am and i miss you so

couples are departing soon they'll all be gone

now another day is starting

still i linger on with

blue champagne

purple shadows and blue champagne

with the echoes that still remain

i keep a blue rendezvous

bubbles rise

like a fountain before my eyes

and they suddenly crystallize

to form a vision of you

all the plans we started

all the songs we sang

each little dream we knew

they seem to overtake me

like a boomerang

blue is the sparkle

gone is the tang

each old refrain

keeps returning

as i remain

with the memory and blue champagne

to toast the dream that was you

i'm bluer than blue champagne
