Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Blue Moon (R Rodgers, L Hart)
Subject: ADD: Blue Moon (Rodgers & Hart)
An abridged version is on page 77 of the folksinger's handbook, Rise Up Singing. BLUE MOON
(lyrics: Lorenz Hart, Music: Richard Rodgers)
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 saw 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
