Blue Moonlight

Billy Walker

Compositor: Benny Carter / Dana Suesse

I fell in love on a moonlit night
In the blue moon light of old Mexicali
I kissed red lips neath the blossoms of white
In the blue moon light and I was so happy

Because I was happy I broke the vows I made to another
And I made promisses I couldn't keep
Now I'm alone in the silent night
And as blue moon light touches my pillow I weep

I weep for the heart that I've broken apart
And the shame in my soul never die
For I promised that I'd be returning but I knew I was saying goodbye
For I wasn't free God forgive me only he knows what I feel inside

Because I was happy I broke the vows...
