Blue Moon

I don't matter. 
I've never mattered to anyone 
I don't matter 

No one's waiting for me 
And I wait for no one 
I could have been a light in the night 

I could have been a beacon in the dark 
I could have been the shepherd's star 
To find my way in the darkness 

Of the blue moon 
Who looks at me tonight 
and for whom I matter 

For once in my life 
I can count on her 
I count 1,2,3
And here I am 
Ready to pick it up again for me 
And for you too 

You who look at me tonight by the moonlight 
I can count on you
I can count on you
Blue glow 
In the middle 
of the indigo ocean
