Blue Moon

Blue moon you saw me standing alone

Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own

Blue moon you know just what I was there for

You heard me saying a prayer for

Someone I really do care for

And then suddenly appeared before me

The only one my arms could ever hold

I heard somebody whisper please adore me

But when I looked that 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

Without a love of my own

"Blue Moon" is a classic popular song written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1934, and has become a standard ballad. It may be the first instance of the familiar "50s progression" in a popular song. The song was a hit twice in 1949 with successful recordings in the US by Billy Eckstine and Mel Tormé. In 1961, "Blue Moon" became an international number one hit for the doo-wop group the Marcels, on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and in the UK Singles chart. Over the years, "Blue Moon" has been covered by various artists including versions by Elvis Presley, the Mavericks and Rod Stewart.

Versions of this song are used liberally in the soundtrack of the 1981 horror-comedy film An American Werewolf in London.
