Blue Moon

Once upon a time, before I took up smiling, I hated the moonlight.

Shadows of the night the poorest find beguiling

Seems flat as the moonlight.

With no one to stay up for, I went to sleep at ten.

Life was a bitter cup for the saddest of all men.

Blue moon

You saw me standing alone

Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own.

Blue moon

You knew just what I was there for

You heard me saying a prayer for

Someone I really could care for.

And then there suddenly appeared before me

The only one my arms will ever hold

I heard somebody whisper please adore me

And when I looked the Moon had turned to gold.

Blue moon

Now I'm no longer alone

Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own...

And then there suddenly appeared before me

The only one my arms will ever hold

I heard somebody whisper please adore me

And when I looked the Moon had turned to gold.

Blue moon

Now I'm no longer alone

Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own...
