A tropical sea
And five lazy days
A cool island breeze
Baby, I'm sailing away
But I'm missing you
On a blue holiday
Gardenia perfume
Blows through my sails
Out on an open ocean
The blossoms fade to pale
Under the moon
On a blue holiday
But every time I think of you
I sink into a deeper blue
The blue of your beautiful eyes
As twilight turns to starry skies
You're alone at home
And I'm lonely in paradise
I order our drinks
And toss you a grin
You catch with a wink
And you whisper, "Kiss me again"
But it's just fantasy
On a blue holiday
But every time I think of you
I sink into a deeper blue
The blue of your beautiful eyes
As twilight turns to starry skies
You're alone at home
And I'm lonely in paradise
I stare at the waves
And stroll down the beach
I'd hold you close, oh, but baby
You're so far out of reach
Of my solitude
On this blue holiday
Hm, blue holiday
