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 pray for
Someone I really could care for.
Oooo, ooooo, oooooo, ooooooo
Without a love of my own
Blue moon,
You saw me standing alone,
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own.
Oooooo, oooooo, ooooooo
Without a love of my own
Blue moon...
Bluue, whaaa
Without a love of my own.
Oooooo, ooooooo
mmmmmmm

so goddamn haunting and evocative- just plain eerie and simply stunning... maybe my favourite elvis song and in-general easily one of the all-time greatest songs.

Nunca escuché una versión más inquietante y maravillosa de este tema. Elvis siempre lo hace diferente.
