Blue Days of June
Language: English
Blue days of June, dear, Blue days of June, Birds in the branches. Singing their tune! All the fields calling, All the waves croon, June's in the world today! Blue days of June. Blue nights of June, dear, Blue nights of June, Stars and grey waters Under the moon! All the sweet silence Singing one tune, June in our hearts tonight! Blue nights of June! Autumn will come, dear, Winter fall soon, Snow in the valley Under the moon! What does it matter? My heart's a-tune, You're always with me, dear, You are my June.
