[Verse]
DTruth or lie, the Csilence is revealing
DAn empty sky, a Chidden mound of stone
But the DCAT scan's eye Csees what the heart's concealing
DNow-a-days, when Ceverything is Dknown
[Refrain]
DMaybe love's an accident, or Gdestiny is true
DBut you and I were born beneath a star of Adazzling blue
DDazzling blue
[Verse]
DMiles apart, though the Cmiles can't measure Ddistance
Worlds apart on a Crainy afternooDn
But the road gets dirty and it Coffers no resistance
DSo turn your amp up and Cplay your lonesome Dtune
[Refrain]
DMaybe love's an accident, or Gdestiny is true
DBut you and I were born beneath a Astar of dazzling blue
DDazzling blue
[Chorus]
DDazzling blue, roses red, fine white linen
To Amake a marriage bed
DAnd we'll build a wall that nothing can break tGhrough
DAnd dream our dreams of Adazzling Dblue
[Verse]
DSweet July, and we dCrove the Montauk DHighway
And walked along the Ccliffs above the Dsea
And we wondered why, and Cimagined it was Dsomeday
DAnd that is how the future came to Dbe
[Chorus]
DDazzling blue, roses red, fine white linen
ATo make a marriage bed
DAnd we'll build a wall that nothing can break Gthrough
                       D    A(A7)  D  
And dream our dreams of dazzling blue
