Lyrics for Song: Blue Moon 
Lyrics for Album: Jazz Archives [2009]
  
               
  5093>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 pray'r 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
