Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- The stars were all a-glow
The moon was swinging low
The nightingale was sweetly singing
It seems I can’t forget
The place where first we met
Sweet memories ever are clinging
Chorus
Out in Colorado where I met you
Out where the columbines grow
There where the breeze sang through the trees
I learned to love you so
Seems I hear you calling in the twilight
Whispering of skies ever blue
That’s why I yearn just to return
To old Colorado and you
- It seems that I can see
Someone who waits for me
When shades of night are softly falling
And in the skies above I see those eyes of love
Eyes that I’m always recalling
Sung here by Fred Feild:
