Once in a Blue Moon

Today we've got a Blue Moon, the second Full Moon in a month. For those who like to get specific about the time frames (i.e. Virgos), apparently "Once in a Blue Moon" means "every 2-3 years". The last one was on July 31, 2004 and the next one will be on Dec. 31, 2009. That's in California, US, at least. Jack Kevorkian gets released from jail tomorrow and I think Paris Hilton goes in.

Go into your favorite neighborhood dive tonight and get sloppy all over the piano player. Here are the words:

"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 could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked to the Moon it turned to gold

Blue Moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked the 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

Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own "
