I never wanted the stars Never shot for the moon I like them right where they are All I wanted was you So baby just turn away Because I can't face the truth All I'm trying to say Is all I wanted was you The last time I saw her

Last night, alone, I met the moon I saw its halo and the love around "Now take the path, don't ever lose your time Just watch the light you have inside" I watched inside and my eyes burned The moon was right Roots so deep, head so high I want to be in

Maybe you were right But baby I was lonely I don't want to fight I'm tired of being sorry I'm standing in the street Crying out for you No one sees me But the silver moon I don't know why

Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on a-shinin' Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on a-shinin' It was on one moonlit night, stars shinin' bright Whispered on high, love said goodbye Well, it was on one moonlit

She woke up and took me by the hand And that's alright with me Moonlight dancing off her hair She's gonna love me in my Chevy van Cause like a picture she was laying there I gave a girl a ride in my wagon And she crawled in and took control She was tired

Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on a-shinin' Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on a-shinin' It was on one moonlit night, stars shinin' bright Whispered on high, love said goodbye Well, it was on one moonlit

Then I remember When the moon was full and bright I would take you in the darkness And do the tango in the night Listen to the wind on the water Listen to the waves upon the shore Try to sleep, sleep won't come Just as I begin to fade
