Blood on the Saddle - The Moon Is Blue Lyrics

The moon is blue, I am, too
No sweetheart is turning to me
The sun goes down
The blues come 'round
Sending a chill through me

The moon is high, so am I
I've only my own self to blame
I can't go on this path so wrong
Hanging my head in shame

Lord, if you're near me
Take hold of my hand
Help me to please understand
God, can you hear me
A desperate man
My luck ain't worth a damn

The dead of night
The pale moonlight
Has caught me alone feeling bad
I wonder when what might have been
Will ever stop making me sad

The moon is blue, I am, too
No sweetheart is yearning for me
The deep dark night
The pale moonlight
Is shining a blue light on me
