When The Deep Purple Falls Over Sleepy Garden Walls...

An old fashion love song, seems brand new today.  Some may never have heard of it.  It is lovely and one of my favorites.  I don't know why I know of it, I wasn't even born yet.  Maybe my parents sang it to each other.  That is a sweet thought.  I know they sang it many years latter when I was a little girl.

It's a classic, just like the color purple.  It is full of love, beauty and passion.
It was the inspiration for this Etsy treasury with gorgeous purple items.

So sit back, and enjoy the T.  I have the original version on YouTube at the end.  

"La vie est belle!"  Life is beautiful!  ..and  so is purple!  Patti :)

[Written in 1934 as a piano composition - lyrics added in 1939]
When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls
And the stars begin to twinkle in the night
In the mist of a memory you wander on back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh
In the still of the night once again I hold you tight
Though you're gone, your love lives on when moonlight beams
And as long as my heart will beat, sweet lover we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams
Here in my deep purple dreams
When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls
And the stars begin to twinkle in the night
In the mist of a memory you wander back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh
In the still of the night once again I hold you tight
Though you're gone, your love lives on when moonlight beams
And as long as my heart will beat, sweet lover we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams
And as long as my heart will beat, sweet lover we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams

And the stars begin to twinkle in the sky...
In the midst of a memory you wander back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh...
Sweet lover, we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams.
