Blue Rondo a la Turk

Blue Rondo

A La Turk (Round, Round, Round)

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a harmony

Round, round, round a melody,

Harmony, melody-steadily

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a memory

Round, round, round a melody,

Memory, melody, merrily.

There's a melody

I used to play

Counterpoint every yesterday.

Swiftly up and down

I hasten and

Chasten my fingers and heart to play.

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a memory

Round, round, round a melody

Memory, harmony-steadily

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a mystery

Round, round, round a melody,

Mystery, mirror of history.

Taking over all my reveries

Hearing passions in the melodies

Play it up and down so wearily

Stumbling, fumbling, tumbling.

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a harmony

Round, round, round a melody

Harmony, melody, memory

Round, round town

I follow you.

Round, round town

I'm calling you.

Round, round town

I hasten to do

All the chasing you want me to.

Open up an opportunity,

For I know that you will be

Truly happy and content with me.

Measure me, treasure me, pleasure me.

Open up an opportunity.

Open up an offer.

You will be

Truly happy and content with me.

Measure me, treasure me, pleasure me.

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a you and me.

Round, round, round a melody

You and me, melody and harmony.

Round, round, round a melody

Round, round, round a harmony

Round, round, round a melody,

Harmony, mystery-you and me.

Don't you see

That we were meant to be,

One and the same.

Melody, married to harmony,

One and the same.

Change the score

We will be ever more

One and the same.

Melody, married to harmony

One and the same.

Here it comes, our symphony,

Measure by measure.

A melody and harmony,

You and me in harmony.

You and me so happy

Were making it

Shaking the blues aint bothering me.

Here it comes, our symphony,

Measure by measure,

A pleasure.

A melody and harmony,

You and me in harmony

You and me so happy

We found a new rondo,

To end the blue rondo today.
