Under A Blanket of Blue
Louis & Ella Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Under a blanket of blue
Just you and I beneath the stars
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance
The night is ours

Under a blanket of blue
Let me be thrilled by all your charms
Darling, I know my heart will dance
Within your arms

A summer night's magic, enthralling me so
The night would be tragic
If you weren't here to share it my dear
Covered with heaven above

Let's dream a dream of love for two
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance
Under a blanket of blue

Under a blanket of blue
Just you and I beneath the stars
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance
The night is ours

Under a blanket of blue
Let me be thrilled by all your charms
Darling, I know my heart will dance
Within your arms

A summer night's magic, enthralling me so
The night would be tragic
If you weren't here to share it my dear
Covered with heaven above

Let's dream a dream of love for two
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance

Damn when Ella's vocals come in 😩💨

@dirtroadsandwoodstoves

Man - everytime I hear these two - just amazing. I've listened to these Duets since I was a little guy. One of the best duet teams ever. American legends - created some real classics for the ages. I've cried, tranced out, made love, got lost, been found, laughed, rejoiced and dreamt to Ella and Louis......

@dozer6448

I miss these two great Ms Ella has a voice of angel

@VijayaSun1

Lovely! Thanks for sharing this! I’ve heard a lot of both Louis Armstrong’s and Ella Fitzgerald’s singing, but I’ve never heard this!one.

@boomerang905

Mr. Armstrong's phrasings get me every single time. My parent's favorite. 💝💝💝

@georgefeser6483

I love this one. It always makes me think of sitting outside, with a glass of water, with someone that I lost. I loved her a lot, and this was a song that we both liked.

@davielove11

My favorite vocal duo... their voices and singing styles are so different from one another, yet they compliment each other so well.
