Blue Moon Songtext

von Billy Vaughn

Once upon a time
Before I took up smiling
I hated the moonlight
Shadows of the night
That poets find beguiling

Seemed 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

Once upon a time
My heart was just an organ
My life had no mission
Now that I have you
To be as rich as Morgan

Is my one ambition
Once I awoke at seven
Hating the morning light
Now I awake in heaven
And all the world's all right

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

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
