The Breeze And I

(Words by Al Stillman and Music by Ernesto Lecuona)

[Music written in 1929 as a piano piece called "Andaluza" - part of the Andalucia Suite by the Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona]

The breeze and I are saying with a sigh
That you no longer care
The breeze and I are whispering goodbye
To dreams we used to share

Ours was a love song that seemed constant as the moon
Ending in a strange, mournful tune
And all about me, they know you have departed without me
And we, we wonder why, the breeze and I
The breeze and I
