Blue Moon over Brooklyn Songtext

von Peter Criss

[Verse]
It was a winters day
When I heard the phone ring
It was my brothers voice
He said come on home
He said mom was dying
He started crying
I felt the pain
I felt that pain
I knew inside I had to get there
I didn't know how
I just had to get there

[Chorus]
Why she had to leave this place behind (blue moon)
Knowing that we'd all be hurt
Life is so hard to bear
Tell me what your reasons are for my despair
Blue moon over Brooklyn
Never saw such a light shining down on me
Blue moon over Brooklyn
Never saw such a light shining down on me

[Verse]
I was all alone
The night I flew home
I was going insane
I felt to blame
My heart was beating
Do you know that feeling?
I didn't want to be late
Lord, hope she'll wait

[Chorus]

My mama told me,
Son you better shop around
Postman comes once
Lucky if he comes again
You've gotta be nice
Take my advice
It's time to go
Mama, I miss you so

[Solo]

[Chorus]
Blue moon over Brooklyn
Never saw such a light shining down on me
Blue moon over Brooklyn
Never saw such a light shining down on me

It was a blue moon, yeah
Oh-oh, I can't take it baby
Baby, oh what a night
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I think I'm gonna be sad
Blue moon over Brooklyn
Blue moon over Brooklyn
Blue moon over Brooklyn
