Tony Bennett - Blue Moon lyrics

rate me

once upon a time

before i took 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

blue moon...

you saw me standing alone

without dream in my heart

without a love of my own

blue moon...

you knew just what i was there for

you heard me saying i pray 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 turn to gold

blue moon...

now i'm no longer alone

without dream in my hear

without a love of my own.
