Nat King Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was a musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist. He owes most of his popular musical fame to his soft baritone voice, which he used to perform in big band and jazz genres. He was one of the first black Americans to host a television variety show, and has maintained worldwide popularity since his death. more »

Blue gardenia 
Now I'm alone with you 
And I am oh-so blue 
She has tossed us aside 
And, like you, gardenia 
Once I was near her heart 
After the teardrops start 
Where are teardrops to hide?

I lived for an hour 
What more can I tell 
Love bloomed like a flower 
Then the petals fell 
Blue gardenia 
Thrown to a passing breeze 
But rest in my book 
Of memories 

I lived for an hour 
What more can I tell?
Love bloomed like a flower 
Then the petals fell 
Blue gardenia 
Thrown to a passing breeze 
But rest in my book 
Of memories
