O lonely blue moon, shine a bit for me.
Come yellow moon, shine brightly so I'll see
I wander here and there aimlessly.
Search for my dear one to love faithfully.
She would not tolerate my advances.
She will never accept my mischances.
I was so foolish not to treat her well.
How I miss her, only the Lord can tell.
Come, sweet Lord, shine brightly so I'll see,
And take her for a ride along the quay.
We will make up; only the Lord can tell.
I must beg her pardon and feel my heart swell.
Blight the clouds lowly dispirited feigns,
Despite these regards there belies the shrouds,
In height uncovers the misplaced reclaims,
Ignite, blameless drives of a dove in clouds.
In measured distance or that of life's span,
Of treasured reflections as fawning dawns,
A feathered friend that needs a shepherd's hand,
Unfettered airiness descends chiffons.
An aloof crowned hall grows ever grandeur,
Shall allude facts of dire circumstances,
Can assume, beasts of burden, not dirt-poor,
Ample proof, a slanted roof, mischances.
Grounds, telltale's a flap, wingless warrior,
Sounds, fled coos, eyes unreachable love,
Downs of feathers white o'er once courier,
Pounds the ceaseless cease ... flights anew born dove.
O lonely blue moon, shine a bit for me.
I just wander here and there aimlessly.
Come dear wan moon, shine brightly so I'll see,
Search for my dear one to love faithfully.
I just wander here and there aimlessly.
She would not tolerate my advances
Search for my dear one to love faithfully.
She will never accept my mischances.
She would not tolerate my advances
I was so foolish not to treat her well.
She will never accept my mischances.
How I miss her, only the Lord can tell.
I was so foolish not to treat her well.
Come dear wan moon, shine brightly so I'll see,
How I miss her, only the Lord can tell.
O lonely blue moon, shine a bit for me.
