- Verse:
- Once upon a time, before
I took up smiling, I hated the moonlite.
- Shadows of the night, that
poets find beguiling, Were flat as the noonlite.
- With no one to stay up for,
I went to sleep at ten.
- Life was a bitter cup for
the saddest of all men.
-
- Chorus:
- 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 pray'r 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.
