#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.
