Billy Eckstine - Then Came You (Out of the Blue) Lyrics

When I turned 17
I travelled with a 60's van
Love was just a song I would sing
I did a million farewells
I rode on buses to strange hotels

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

When I was young and wild
I wandered like we would win
Searching for a child with dream
I stood in song inaudible
I sang to faces that change with the night

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

I'm so glad
That you came into my life
I'm gonna build my world around you
And baby now that I've found you

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

When I was 21
I gave the world
A lover man
Love was just a silly game

I sang my songs
I broke some hearts
I kissed so many sweet lips in the dark

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

I'm so glad
That you came into my life
I'm gonna build my world around you
Now that I've found you

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

I'm so glad
That you came into my life
I'm gonna build my world around you
Now that I've found you

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently

Then came you
Out of the blue
Gently"
