Blue Moon

Tonight we will experience the first Blue Moon since 1990. The next will occur in 2028.

Blue Moon

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 could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me,
Someone my arms could really hold,
I heard you whisper, "Darling please adore me,"
And when I looked to the moon it had turned 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
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.

-Rodgers and Hart, 1934
