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 noon light 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 know 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 Without a love of my own Without a love of my own Now I have a girl of my own
