Lyrics
1. Once upon a time, before I took up smiling
I hated the moonlight
Shadows of the night the 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
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 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
2. 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
