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.
But Blue moon,
You gave me an unrequited love.
Someone I loved with my everything,
but couldn't love me.

Blue moon I asked for a love of my own.
I was lonely, sad and depressed.
I asked for a shoulder I could lay on.
But you gave me someone who would hug and hold me and let me cry on him,
But wouldn't love me.

Blue moon, I asked for true love.
You gave me a friend.
And I appreciate that.
But I needed someone who would love me.
Couldn't you see?
I just needed to feel loved,deeply.

Blue moon, I asked for who would heal me.
Who would make me complete.
But you gave me someone who further destroyed me,
broke me into many more pieces.

Blue moon, you saw me standing there,
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own.

You heard me saying a prayer for someone I could care for.
And I know that I wasn't all that specific.
But you should have known.

Blue moon,
You should have known that I needed someone who would care for me too.
